Back training for maximum hypertrophy | BACK

We have a new series of videos where Radim and I will show you how to set up a workout. In today's episode we're going to show you a volume workout for your back. It's a combination workout that uses rest breaks, but also classic normal sets where we target not only back width and depth, but also strength development.

It's really important what weight you choose for the exercise, where we do the rest pause, so we need to write down the weights from previous workouts so we can improve. Here's just a hint of what a back workout might look like, so if you choose slightly different exercises it's not a problem. The important thing is that you really feel the areas and now we can only improve together!

*rest pause set = very heavy weight with which to achieve a total of 11-15 reps. We try to get as many reps as we can, so for example 6, then we put the barbell down and take 15 deep breaths and again get as many reps as we can, now it's only 4 for example. Now we'll put the barbell down again and take 15 more breaths, and the third time we'll try to lift the weight as high as we can, now exhausted we'll only do 2 or 3 reps. The total reps should be 11-15. If we do more than 15, we need to add weight.
