Some effective back exercises you can do in the gym:
Deadlifts: Stand with a barbell on the floor, bend at your hips and knees to grip the bar, then stand up straight, pulling the barbell up along your shins and thighs until you're standing tall.
Pull-Ups: Hang from a pull-up bar with your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, then pull yourself up until your chin is over the bar and lower yourself back down.
Bent-Over Barbell Rows: Hold a barbell with an overhand grip, hinge at your hips to bend forward, then pull the barbell towards your lower chest while keeping your back flat.
Seated Cable Rows: Sit at a cable row machine with your feet braced against the platform, grasp the handles, and pull them towards your torso, squeezing your shoulder blades together.
Lat Pulldowns: Sit at a lat pulldown machine, grasp the bar with an overhand grip wider than shoulder-width apart, then pull the bar down towards your chest, focusing on engaging your lats.
Dumbbell Rows: Place one knee and hand on a bench, hold a dumbbell in the opposite hand, then pull the dumbbell up towards your hip while keeping your back flat.
T-Bar Rows: With a T-bar row machine or barbell in a corner, straddle the bar and grip it with both hands, then pull the bar towards your chest while keeping your back straight.
Hyperextensions/Back Extensions: Lie face down on a hyperextension bench with your hips supported and your hands behind your head, then lift your torso up until it's in line with your legs, squeezing your lower back muscles.
Single-Arm Dumbbell Rows: Stand next to a bench with one knee and hand resting on it, hold a dumbbell in the opposite hand, then pull the dumbbell towards your hip while keeping your back flat.
