30 Minutes to Muscle – Back Day

30 Minutes to Muscle – Back Day

While it’s not ideal, yes, you can do this workout in 30 minutes!
It’s not a walk in the park but you’ll feel like your floating out of the gym by an inflated upper torso by minute 30.  That’s a good thing. Really.  It is.

If you’re working with a limited amount of time it helps to follow 2 simple rules.

Avoid Eye Contact
The earlier you go the less chance for chit-chat. There are worse things to be than a social butterfly, but at the gym stay focused on the weights.  The best way to do that brings me to the second thing to remember.

30 Minutes to Muscle - Back Day

 


The Back Workout

Supersets (3 sets each)

1.) Pull-ups with body weight until failure
superset this with Standing Upright Cable Rows 10-12 reps increasing weight


2.) Bodyweight Mid-Row on Smith Machine until failure superset this with
One Arm Dumbbell Row

3.) Standing Lateral Pulldowns 12, 10, 8 reps with increasing weight
superset this with Mid-upper Back Back Extensions until failure

Take a minute in between each superset, get a drink and stretch. This 1-2 minutes go by fast but you’re not going too heavy so it’s plenty of recovery time.
