    No well-developed physique would be complete without a proper V-taper. A wide upper back and broad shoulders that taper down to a narrow waist is the very definition of aesthetics. I've worked hard to achieve this look, and have found the best strength and hypertrophy gains by working back and shoulders twice per week.
    My Wide-Back, Boulder-Shoulder Workout is usually the second back-and-shoulder workout in my split. The primary goal for this workout is to build strength, but of course I throw in a little hypertrophy work, too! I like to hit my back first, and then move into the shoulder exercises after a short break. This is a fast-paced workout though, so don't worry about being in the gym too long.
    The workout starts off light to pump some blood into the muscles and get them warmed up. As we move along, we'll work up to heavier weights and more strenuous movements. By the time we're though, you're back and shoulders will be screaming for mercy.
    Ready to get to work? Let's do it!
    BACK WORKOUT
    SUPERSET: PULL-UP/DUMBBELL PULL-OVER
    The first thing we'll do today is a superset. Perform 5 pull-ups, then immediately move to a set of dumbbell pull-overs with no rest between movements. Do the first set of pull-ups with a wide grip, switch to a closer, neutral grip for the second set, and finish with an underhand grip for the final set.
    While performing the dumbbell pull-over, slow down. I want you to feel the weight and know you're really doing the work rather than blowing through the reps as quickly as possible. This means you'll need to grab a dumbbell you can move in a slow, controlled manner.
    Because you're contracting your lats on every rep of this superset, they're going to be pumped by the time you're done. I promise you'll feel it tomorrow when you wake up!
    SINGLE-ARM BENT-OVER DUMBBELL ROW
    Begin with a lighter weight for your first set of dumbbell rows, and get heavier as the reps go down. Get a good grip on the dumbbell and focus on squeezing your elbow back to your hip-don't let it swing wide. Squeeze at the top and lower the weight back down slowly.
    SEATED UNDERHAND PULL-DOWN
    As with the dumbbell row, you'll use lighter weight to start, and move the pin down with each set. You'll also change your grip slightly as you go along: Use a wide grip on the first set, bring your hands in a bit for the second set, and finish with a narrow grip.
    With back movements, I've found the negative portion (eccentric) is more important than the concentric (lifting). Think about it: If you want a muscle to grow, you have to stretch it out. On back movements, the stretch occurs when you're lowering the weight. So, take your time through the eccentric part of the lifts.
    SEATED CLOSE-GRIP CABLE ROW
    Using a close grip on this exercise enables you to get a good, strong contraction on each rep. These sets should be fairly heavy. Choose a weight that's heavy enough so you fail at about 8 reps. If you still have a few more reps in the tank, you're not going heavy enough.
    By now you should be feeling pretty tired. Power through the last 2 sets and then take a quick break before you move on to shoulders.
    SHOULDER WORKOUT
    Take a drink, walk around for a minute, and get ready to transition into your shoulder workout.
    SUPERSET: STANDING LATERAL RAISE/SINGLE-ARM UPRIGHT ROW
    Once again, we'll start with a superset to pump blood into the muscles. You've already warmed up your shoulders quite a bit during the back workout, so it won't take much. Be sure to do lateral raises with control. Don't swing or heave the weights up using momentum. Your shoulders should be doing all the work.

    Some people are so quick to be critical they forget to check sources before jumping to conclusions. This dude was a former soccer player and is a coach. His physique resembles that of a athlete, not a bodybuilder. Being a former athlete I can appreciate the workout because the advice he is giving is things you are taught to have functional strength for sports. Such as, full range of motion, stopping after your form starts to get sloppy to avoid injury, and ect. Again good video and if this workout ain't for you then find one that suits what you are aiming for.

    To me this workout seems pretty bland. Where’s deadlifts? Where’s military press?
    This is what I do for back and shoulder:
    Deadlift 4 sets 4-6 reps
    Standing back row 4 sets 4-6 reps
    Weighted chin ups 4 sets 4-6 reps
    Standing military press 4 sets 4-6 reps
    Standing reverse back fly 4 sets 4-6 reps
    Side lateral raise 4 sets 4-6 reps
    On day 2 I do legs and chest.
    Is this bad? Any thoughts on this set up?

      Legs tend to make me queezy if I go hard enough. I normally do legs by themselves. The other days I always incorporate a push and pull motion. Chest and bi's, back and shoulders. This has always worked well for me.

      Incline Bench 4 sets 4-6 reps
      Flat Bench 4 sets 4-6 reps

      means you can either do 10 reps,8 reps or 6 reps.
      it depends how many you can do
      but you do them 3 times so either ( 10,10,10) or(8,8,8) or (6,6,6) thn you done.
