Creating That V-Taper

[dark_goth_cross]

I want to make the v taper look but can u help me make a workout with a barbell/dumbbell/bench/chin-up bar/pull up bar ....anyone?

Basically to obtain the V-taper you have a wide back and a small waist. Any back excercises should work, bent over barbell rows, dumbell rows, lat pulldowns etc. oh and of course minimal fat around the waist

[iam fuzz]

Broad shoulders (side lateral raises). Wide back (lats [pullups/chinups]). Smaller waist (genetics/diet)

Very little if anything to do with a V-taper shape. It's all about the shoulders/back/waist. Though big chest+small waist will help accentuate it from the front.

[BSN dude]

Chins and lateral pulldows are your best bet. Use a wide grip

dont do pulldowns. they do basically nothing for your v taper imo. do heavy pullups. strap weight onto yourself. hit the bent rows. they'll help too. dont forget the rear delts either. hit em hard with light weight.

Damn, serious V-taper going on in that profile pic. Wish I had that waist hehe..
What would be the advantages of going light on the rear delts?

i turned my rear delts from being a weak point to them being bigger then my front delts in just a few months by doing one armed laterals lying on a bench. 20 reps is what i used. many times i can only get 15 but still cheat 5 more in. they blew up pretty quick. i guess i should get new pics cause my avatar is old but i havent gotten around to it lol.
