    30-Minute Back Workout

    Remember that there is not one magic routine that will give you all of the muscle growth that you desire. You need to change your workout routines every 3-4 weeks in order to keep results coming, and the more advanced you become, the more variation your training needs.

    Another thing that needs to be understood is that no workout routine will burn off the fat for you. Burning off the fat only happens when the diet is correct. If the nutrition is inadequate, your fat will stay right where it is at. And if your nutrition is horrible, the fat stores may actually increase. Thus, make sure that you are following a good nutrition program if losing fat is what your goal is.

    Now, if you are looking to stimulate some new muscle growth in your back muscles this 30-minute back workout routine is guaranteed to add inches of width to your back as well as thickness!

    This workout is fast paced and it involves the use of trisets and supersets. A triset is three exercises performed one after the other with no rest in between. You only rest the prescribed amount of time after the third exercise. A superset is the same as a triset but with only two exercises in the circuit.

    It is important to understand that this routine is for the more advanced bodybuilders that who have at least a solid year and a half of training under their belt.

    30 Minute Natural Bodybuilding Specialization Workout Routine for Back

    (Triset)
    Wide Grip Pull-Ups to Front 4 sets of 8-10 reps (no rest)
    One Arm Rows 4 sets of 8-10 reps (no rest)
    Close Grip Chins (Reverse Grip) 4 sets of as many reps as possible (1 minute rest)


    Note: Use the same dumbbells you used for the Flyes. You may need to decrease the weight in order to stay within the recommended repetition ranges for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th trisets.

    (Superset)
    Barbell Rows 3 sets of 8-10 reps (no rest)
    Reverse Grip Barbell Rows 3 sets of as many as you can do with the same weight as the barbell rows (1 minute rest)

    (Superset)
    Close Grip Pull-ups to Front 3 sets of 12-15 reps (no rest)
    Two Arm Dumbbell Rows 3 sets of 15-18 reps (1 minute rest)

    Note: If you cannot do Pull-ups yet due to lack of strength, try the Gravitron Machine. If there is no Gravitron Machine available at your gym then try having someone help you. If none of these options are available, then use a pull-down machine, even though for maximum benefits, the pull-up is recommended.

    Follow this workout with a either a protein shake that contains carbs as well or 6 ounces of chicken breast (3 ounces if you are a female), vegetables, and a carb like baked potato or rice in order to maximize recovery and get the muscle growth process started.

    Workout Split To Use

    For workouts like this, I like to use a one body part per day training split. A one body part training split is designed in such a way that only one muscle group is targeted in each bodybuilding workout. This is a great way to train for very advanced bodybuilders who are significantly strong and can generate such a high level of intensity in each workout that training less frequently will allow for better results and recovery.

    There are two advantages to this workout split:

    1.It allows the advanced bodybuilder to just concentrate on the body part at hand and work it from all possible angles. At at advanced level, the goal is to not only build new muscle mass but also to correct any imbalances and achieve perfect symmetry (or harmony between body parts).

    2.It allows the muscle to better recover from the high volume and intensity required from this advanced level of training.

    Below you will find a good examples of how I would set up my one muscle group per day training split in order to prioritize my chest.

    Monday: Chest/Calves
    Tuesday: Hamstrings/Abs
    Wednesday: Arms
    Thursday: Shoulders/Calves
    Friday: Quadriceps/Abs
    Saturday: Back/Abs
    Sunday: Rest

    Conclusion

    Try this workout out for four weeks before changing to another one and feel free to alter the order of the exercises every week in order to keep things different for your body.

    By the way, after doing this workout I recommend that you do a lower volume workout such as the 5 sets of 5 reps workout for 4 weeks.
