Killer Home Back (Lats) Workout

Here is a killer 45 minute back workout that you can do at home with just a set of dumbbells and a pullup bar. This is an back (lats,latissimus dorsi)workout for the advanced bodybuilder, if you are new to bodybuilding please check my website for a more appropriate workout.

Make sure you have done warm-up sets for both biceps and triceps before starting this workout because we start in with really heavy weights and you don't want to get injured.

Intensity and focus are really important when you do this workout. Don't hold back anything, treat every set as if it were your last. I know I sound stupid with all my grunting and groaning but when I give it 110%, I can't help it. Here is the workout:

Superset 1: Wide grip pullups and dumbbell rows
Superset 2: Alternating grip pullups and dumbbell pullovers
Superset 3: Narrow grip pullups and bent over dumbbell rows

Repeat the above 5-6 times, the complete workout should take about 45 minutes. If you don't like reconfiguring the dumbbells all the time you can also just do each superset combo 5X and then move on to the next combo. This workout should be done once every 5-7 days depending on your age.

Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn't have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.

Hey Godsmackfan18, I can't quite figure out what you are saying/asking with your typos and your incomplete sentence. I think you might be asking again what "fragkid1" asked, please see how I answered him.

[raredethking]

HEY COOL HOW MANY INCHES ARE UR BICEPS

[fojerbachas]

well for rows i thing you could let your shoulder drift a bit forward - the lats gets stretched and its better contraction at the top. imo

[Nekrosadistic]

cheers for this, been looking for a home workout for lats as opposed to splashing out on a gym membership, and this is exactly what i was looking for, thanks.

theres no such thing as stupid questions just stupid people

[avdhesh13]

hi this is Avdhesh i am from India i really want to get a lean body but, the thing is that i am really not able to do that, and according to me the weakest part of ma body is the back. I have tried mant times to do pull ups but i end up doing only one or two times the max what should i do?

[cromulentinnoc3nce]

Excellent video. I think 5 sets of that may be overkill for me right now, but I'm going to go out to the park right now and try to get a few sets in. Came on youtube looking for some inspiration, and all I could have I asked for. Thank you.

[ilyaman]

uhm, honestly i dont really know of any way to approximate the effect of pullup bars. its just..a great and unique work out. The best i can advice i can give you is either find a park near you with like, monkey bars or something (i know it sounds stupid but thats what i did for a while..) or make a makeshift pullup bar in like a doorway in ur house. its not hard. hope that helped..
