Will my program yield a wide muscular back

[xsoulmanz]

I saw a woman today who had a wide muscular back and I saw someone else in the store with a wide muscular back looked so good

My question is will my program aid in that even though it is more geared towards strength am I missing out on a exercise


Day 1

Bench Press /Overhead press 3x5+
Curls 2x10/Chinups 2x8
Squat 3x5+


Day 2

Bench Press /Overhead press 3x5+
Curls 2x10/Chinups 2x8
Deadlift 1x5+


Day 3

Bench Press /Overhead press 3x5+
Curls 2x10/Chinups 2x8
Squat 3x5+


Low bar squats
+ indicates that the last set is as many reps as possible.

Added 2 x 6 weighted dips on the days I do bench press

Add 1 kg for upper body exercises each session
Add 2 kg each session for lower body exercises

I know my program is more like a mark ripptoe starting strength program, adding a weight and getting stronger keeps me coming back to the gym

Chin ups are not enough to build a big back like you are trying to describe.

Your program is lacking IMO.

So what exercise do I add and potentially were so it's also doesn't affect my big lifts

Need More bench

 

[eazy]

will my program aid in that

no.

not a chest supported row, t-bar row, pullover, barbell row, db row, kroc row, lat pull down, or inverted row in sight.

 

[xsoulmanz]

no.

not a chest supported row, t-bar row, pullover, barbell row, db row, kroc row, lat pull down, or inverted row in sight.

This is because the program is more strength focused and I am now wanting to add potentially another exercise to get a wider back

 

[eazy]

the program is more strength focused

did you create this program yourself?

Eazy gave you an answer.

Your program is not going to achieve a wider back. Pick 1-2 exercises that @eazy listed and have at it.

 

[xsoulmanz]

did you create this program yourself?

It's famous program called greyskull lp

The question is what is the best exercise to add so I don't have to do multiple exercises

no source for this claim.

barbell row

depends on which view angle you're working on

try seated rows and or lat pull downs at high reps, like 10 minute intervals, on top of what you're doing

Then you ain’t gonna get a wider back like that woman.

Higher weight lower reps wouldn’t work?

Wouldn’t either be just as effective.
