    thats a bit too much..
    I was thinking more like :


    Deadlifts - 4 sets (5-10 reps, HEAVY!)
    Pull-Ups or Chin-ups or PullDowns (3-4 sets)
    Bentover Rows (4 sets)
    Another Row movement (3 sets)

    I'm going to try this workout in 2 weeks, what do you guys think of it? Also, I'm really WEAK in pullups, cant seem to pull myself...I'm not that fat either (5"11, 178 pounds, 12%bf) but it seems that I can't do more than 4-5 reps...any advice on building my strength for pullups??

    try using the assisted pull up machine for a while, concentrate on going slow and squeezing those muscles on the way up, you'll be able to do unassisteds in no time.

    A good way to build up your strength for pull-ups is doing heavy pull-downs. Keep doing whatever pull-ups you can though that is truely the best way even if you can only do 4-5
    You can achieve anything you put your mind to.

    It may seem like alot but i like higher volume back workouts and i train my biceps that day too this is what im on my way on doing now

    Warm up stretch
    Bent over rows using either (tbar,barbell,or dumbells) I switch every workout 3x8-10 or so
    Hammer strength free weight machines (not sure if you have them) 4x6-8 Heavy quick sets
    Pull downs widegrip infront and behind the head 2x10 each so 4 sets
    Cable rows close/wide grip 2x10 each lighter weight focus on contracting for this and above^
    Shrugs whatever you want to use i do them barbell for 3x10 or so then sets of 25 dumbell with high contraction and slow but w.e you want.
    Deadlifts i do on my leg days because i do legs and core in one day i also do lower back on leg days.
    To burn yourself out do pullups wide till you cant really move then do 2 more do this 2 or 3 sets

    And yeah i know aot of volume but alot of volume works for me idk just my 2cents

    x2, This is what I did and it worked. I started out doing 3 sets of 10 assisted and each week progressed a set and lowered the assisted weight. I got to 5 sets of 10 and then switched over to unassisted. Started with doing how many I could and worked my way up.

    Another thing you could try is get a partner and after you have done every rep you can, have your partner assist you with the rest if say your looking to get 10 reps.

    I started with only being able to do 3 set of 4-5 with bw. I got my first set of 10 this past tuesday and followed that up with a set of 8.5 and a set of 7. Goal is to get 3 sets of 10.

    This workout looks pretty good. I'd keep the deadlift reps on the lower end of 4 or 5.

    Try 3-4 sets 5-10 for hypertrophy (size).

    I got this from Exercise forum sticky

    I dualed my back and tri's today. Unfortunately I can't do everything I want because of limited time from when the gym opens until class starts, but here's what I did..

    1) Bench Dips, 2 sets to failure with legs locked straight out
    One-Arm rows, 2 sets of 10 reps with an 85lb dumbell
    2) Tricep Kick-backs, 2 sets of 15 with 25lb dumbell
    Rowing Chair Narrow grip(not sure name), 2 sets to 15, changing weight to achieve perfect form
    3) Lying EZ-Bar extensions, 2 sets to 15
    Romanian Deads, 2 sets to 15
    4) Throw the Bomb, 2 sets to 15
    Wide Grip Rowing Chair, 2 sets to 15 with minimal body movement
    5) Rope pushdowns, 2 sets to 20
    Lat Pulldowns, 2 sets to 10


    Each number is a superset

    The following works for me. I need to do pullups first, before I get weak.

    Pullups x 3
    BB rows x 3
    Hammer chins(parallel close grip) x 2
    T-bar or 1arm db rows x 2
    Rack pulls or deads x 3
    Rear laterals x 2

    Sometimes I'll throw some bb shrugs in there.

    Strong quote necro. I'm sure he figured it out 8 or 9 years ago. If not, and he hasn't given up, I wouldn't recommend three movements that are nearly identical. Keep one and maybe add shrugs, unless you'd rather keep them with shoulders. Hard to give a more fair critique without knowing goals and stats.

    My back workout consists of:

    1) warm up (pull up 3 sets to failure each set)
    Rest only 30 sec~1 minute in between to get the blood really pumping for greater effect.

    2) wide-grip lat pull down (3 sets increasing weight & maintaining reps of 6~10)

    3) dead lifts (3 sets increasing weight & focusing on more squeezing then reps. But be sure to hit at least 5 rep minimum.
    **** no point forcing yourself to do just 1 rep.****

    4) reverse grip barbell bent over row. (3 sets increasing weight & maintaining rep within 8~10)

    5) seated cable row. (3 sets focusing more squeeze in the inner lat & increasing the weight each set.)
    ** I tend to do this by activating the negativity effect**
    Pulling the bar near to my chest & letting it go slowly.
