I LOVE a good back workout. And with SO many great options for exercises, I thought it would be helpful to put together what I feel are the 5 BEST back exercises. Check it out:
Lat Pull-Downs
We love these for many reasons, the main one being that they will really help improve your pull-ups. So make sure you add these to each back workout you do!
Seated Row
The Seated Row really hits your back hard, especially if you focus on SQUEEZING those shoulder blades together on each rep. Be sure to choose a good weight for these and keep your core engaged throughout!
Dumbbell Rows
Another killer for back day. What I love about Dumbbell Rows is you can do a good amount of weight on them. Once again, keep your core engaged and back straight throughout the movement.
Deadlifts
Although some people would call deadlifts a leg exercise, these most definitely work your entire body, including your back. Both Barbell and Dumbbell Deadlifts are amazing!
Pull-Ups/Chin-Up (YAY!)
My FAVORITE back exercise, BY FAR! The pull-up/chin-up is so amazing for many reasons and it’s something everyone should be working on each week to improve. Whether you can do 25 or are still looking to do your first, always be improving your pull-ups!
There you have it, my 5 FAVORITE back exercises. Start adding these into your workouts each week and you’ll LOVE the results 🙂
