When we consciously go to the gym, we should pay more attention to the training of the back, because a perfect body proportion is based on the coordinated development of the various muscle groups in the whole body, therefore, instead of focusing on areas that are relatively easy or that we like, we should focus on areas that are relatively difficult and areas that we don’t like.
In back training, the most common exercises we do, apart from pull-ups, are pull-ups and rowing exercises, which we also tend to think can only be done in the gym, at home, the most you can do is use dumbbells for rowing. Of course, rowing at home doesn’t fully stimulate your back muscles.
But at this point, we have another option, which is to use resistance band instead of dumbbells, and as long as we keep the resistance bands in place, we can do all kinds of pull-downs and rowing, it is very simple and convenient, and we can also adjust the resistance of the resistance band to meet their objectives.
So, here’s a list of back exercises that we did at home with resistance bands. We did them while familiarizing ourselves with the basics so that we could do them at home, so that their effective exercise to the back muscles, improve poor posture, and achieve muscle or shaping the goal.
Action 1: Single Arm High Pull-down resistance band

With one arm straight up, hold the other end of the resistance band to keep your body stable. The back forces the arm to bend the elbow and pull it toward the chest.
The apex pauses, contracts the back muscle, then controls the speed slowly the reverse direction reduction, causes the back muscle to obtain the complete extension.
Action 2: rowing with resistance band in a sitting position
