    Exercises for a BIG Back?

    Back has recently become the workout I most look forward to.

    My current routine is 4 working sets of:

    Deadlift
    DB Rows
    Pull ups
    Cable pullovers
    Face pulls
    DB Shrugs

    I make sure I fail at 6-8 reps because I am trying to some size on. I might change around the exercise order occasionally and use a bar instead of DB's. But I keep the same exercises.

    Is this enough? I hit Back once a week.

    You have all the right exercises but for a truly big back you also need to pack on some size so make sure you eat loads as well.
    Strength + Speed = Power

    If you never fail, you aren't truly pushing yourself to the limit. If you never push yourself to the limit, how do you know what you're truly capable of?

    This... Heavy T-bar rows on the end of a BB with a narrow grip handle WILL hit mid/upper back HARD as hell and builds the lower end of traps pretty nice as well.

    No lat pulldown? Could be good to have the option to mix in lighter lifts with the heavier pullup.
