Need a back day workout routine because you look very, very, very, very unimpressive from behind?
Don’t concern yourself with how I read your mind.
See, that’s one of the reasons why you’re where you’re at in life: you waste time on trivial nonsense.
Anyway, give this workout a try on your next back day!1As far as making the rest of what’s behind you more appealing, you might want to check out a glute workout in the link all the way at the bottom of this page that’ll direct you to where other routines are for various muscles.
INSTRUCTIONS
A letter next to a number indicates that the exercise is part of a compound set. For example, something listed as 1A and 1B means that the prescribed number of reps for 1A are to be performed and immediately followed by the prescribed number of reps for 1B. Only when those two movements are complete are you to rest, with you beginning the next set after.
Rest periods between sets are 30 to 60 seconds, but that’s assuming you’re working with a light load. Once the load starts getting considerably heavy, rest breaks can be longer, from as little to a minute to as long as five. Use your discretion.
The weight used should be enough to complete the prescribed reps with effort. For instance, a set calling for 12 repetitions should start becoming a struggle by at least the 9th or so rep. If it’s not, the weight is too light. Additionally, the weight should increase on every set. The increase can be as little as 2.5 lbs on each side. It just has to be something! Refer below for exceptions.
If the exercise calls for 4 sets of 12 reps, for example, and the weight you started the exercise with was moderately heavy so that increasing the weight for the subsequent sets will severely cut down on the amount of reps you can do, then stay with the same weight for the remaining sets. Use your discretion, but don’t be a pussy. For exercises listed as 4 sets of 12, 10, 8, 6 reps, that means that the first set should be performed for 12 reps, add weight and do the next set for 10 reps, add weight and do the next set for 8 reps, etc.
If your gym doesn’t have the equipment for a particular exercise, then skip it. That’s the cost of having a cookie-cutter program like this because not every workout can be structured to your available equipment.
If you find that an exercise doesn’t agree with you, stop immediately. That’s the cost of having a cookie-cutter program like this because not every workout can be structured to your injury history and/or personal comfort.
NOTE: Because this is a back workout routine, dumbbell pullovers (1) should be executed as a lat movement, not a chest one. Do this by terminating the range of motion right at the top of the forehead rather than allowing the dumbbell to travel further toward the chest and navel.
NOTE: Use a rope attachment to perform incline bench cable rows (2B).
NOTE: This back day workout routine is an example of a workout for all training levels. But because you’re an individual and don’t want to be like everyone else, you probably want to get yourself a regimen geared to your specific training experience, as well as your injury history, available equipment, goals, and other dumb shit this cookie-cutter routine wasn’t designed for you in mind. Yeah, maybe get yourself an exercise program designed by, I don’t know, yours truly. Well, nobody’s stopping you!!!
