      Wide grip chins to front, t-bar rows, bent over rows, and deadlifts has always givin me good results.

      I do:

      bent-over rows or t-bar rows (substitute them with bent-over rows) 5 sets

      lat-pulldowns 4 sets

      lat-pulldowns w/close grip 4 sets

      deadlifts 4 sets

      one-arms dumbell rows 3 sets

      shrugs 3 sets

      Thats what i do for back.


      I just need to get rid of my tummy a little more so my back could look more v-shaped.

      Try this for lat exercises. Don't wrap your thumb around the bar. Just use four fingers for a grip. Without your thumb you effectively take 99% of the biceps out of the exercise. This works great for pulldowns. Also do the exercise first with no weight and concentrate on pulling with the lats to learn how to do it properly.
