Did a little bench to warm up the upper body before my back workout and I hit a new 9-rep PR with 320 lbs (I think I have 10 reps in me on a chest day). My old PR was 8 reps with 320 lbs back in Nov ‘09.
I posted the wide-grip pullups to help keep my honest in doing these….I told myself that I was going to focus more on incline’s and back in 2010. So, this is the starting point. I suck at pullups at the moment, which is exactly why I need to do them! My goal is bodyweight (BW) plus 100 lbs x 5 reps.

I know I promised an advanced pushup video next, its halfway done – filming the video wiped me out with all the retakes so I couldnt finish it in one session.
This video shows how to do barbell rows. Dont attempt these if you have lower back problems, stick to the pullups. While we are on the subject of pullups, these barbell rows are no substitute for pullups. When it comes to building lats, pullups are king!
Keys to good form on the barbell row:
1) keep your back motionless
2) keep your abs flexed and tight to support your lower back
3) make sure to breathe, dont hold your breath
4) pull the bar to your hip, not your shoulders
5) use a slow, smooth motion – no jerking
By the way, I know I screwed up twice and said “dumbbell row” where I meant “barbell row”. I didnt bother re-filming becuase I figured it wouldnt cause any confusion.
Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn’t have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.
