Why/how are they useless? I do tripod rows with 50kg dumbbells, what's moving the weight? What should I do instead (I already do plenty of pullups).
Keep doing tripod rows, a bit of unilateral work is great for the traps, which stabilize the shoulder girdle, and a lot of deep lower back muscles that are hit hard by bilateral stuff. Same reason lunges can frick up your glutes and adductors. I think those are the only times unilateral exercise isn't a waste of time.
Barbell pright rows cause shoulder impingment, I prefer the dumbell version.
Wide grip pull ups
Under hand chin ups
Bent over barbell rows
Single arm dumbell rows
Straight arm scapula push downs
All very good.
You need some kind of horizontal pull as well. I fell for the "pull ups only" meme as well and my back looked absolutely fricking redicoulous. Huge lats with no trapezius development and no erector spinae development. Minimalist training yields minimalist results.
Deadlift and seated rows give you all the gains you need. I never got any back gains out of pull-ups or pull-downs aside from shoulder and elbow pains lole

deadlifts
cope and seethe elsewhere
Worst exercise here
Pull up + front squats + cleans + face pulls. All you need.
Fatty 1 rep away from ruining his life at any moment
Not even a back exercise you need to have at least a year of experience to post here newbie.
Arnold considered deadlifts a low back exercise you nonce
Ok?
How about pull overs (machine or cable)?
Yeah those are good keep your elbows in to isolate the lats.
Barbell row is great, just don't lift like a tard and you won't get injured.
It's useless just do weighted pull ups and stop ego lifting barbells.

>Lower back injuries
If you get a lower back injury doing barbell rows then your absolutely moronic.

That's just like, your opinion man
Chin Ups, Seated Rows, Clean to Press. Nothing else needed.
>upright rows
guaranteed shoulder impingement
I can only do 8 pullups on the first set then 6 on the second, 4 on the third and so on.
will negative pullups help me up my reps?
