Ultimate Back Day Workout - 5 Back Exercises You Must Do

#4 Weighted Pullup

Let’s face it – weighted pull-ups aren’t the easiest things in the world, but are extremely good for the development of your latissimus dorsi – the muscle in your back that runs from your armpit to your waist. So, if you’re eager for a new challenge as well as a sure shot way to strengthen your back then weighted pull-ups are for you.

Instructions:

Step 1 - Fasten a weighted belt to your waist while balancing a dumbbell between your feet.

Step 2 - Hang from a pull-up bar with your hand's slider wider than shoulder width.

Step 3 - Pull yourself up with all your might until your chin is over the bar. Hold your position for a few seconds before reverting to your original stance.

Important Tip: Start off with 6 before progressing.
