5 Super Effective Back Workouts for Men

#5 Barbell Row

The bent over barbell row works on a whole range of muscles in the back covering the lats, traps and the lower back. Additionally, this exercise trains muscles in the hips and the arms.

Instructions:

Step 1: Stand straight in front of the barbell with weights. Hold the barbell with a pronated grip with slightly bent knees. Keep the torso straight and bend forward using your hips.

Step 2: With a stationary torso, lift the barbell towards the chest. Squeeze the back while performing this motion for maximum efficiency.

Step 3: Pause for a moment and return to the starting position.

Repeat the exercise for the recommended number of times.

Important tips: People with lower back problems should exercise caution and only perform this exercise under expert supervision.
