unbigging the back
A day behind so..yesterday's back day!
Weights were all over the place but the highest was 45 💪 💪 and the lowest I think was 10...lol talk about a range. If you need a starting number 10 or 15 should be find for these...and if by 10 you aren't feeling the burn...go up a little in weight [PROPER FORM BEING PRIORITY THOUGH]
I did 4 sets of 10-12 for everything...
That's all I got today fam! Happy Wednesday 😊
Having completed several back workouts myself, I can say that varying the weights within a session, as mentioned, is a great way to target different muscle fibers and prevent plateaus. Starting with lighter weights like 10 or 15 lbs allows you to focus on perfecting your form, which is critical to preventing injuries and maximizing efficiency. For back training, I often incorporate exercises such as dumbbell rows, reverse flys, and deadlifts. Four sets of 10-12 reps is a solid structure because it balances muscle endurance and strength building. If you're not feeling the burn at 10 lbs, gradually increasing the weight helps stimulate muscle growth without compromising form. Also, consistency matters a lot — ensuring you have a dedicated back day each week can lead to impressive strength and definition gains. Don't forget to warm up properly and stretch post-workout to aid recovery. This approach is perfect for home workouts where access to heavier gym equipment is limited. Integrating various weights not only keeps the routine engaging but also allows progressive overload, essential for continued improvement. Overall, combining a range of dumbbell weights with controlled reps and sets can help you effectively build and unbigging the back muscles over time.
