Welcome to the Community
I want to say "Thank you" for joining the Fortis Health & Fitness community. The idea behind the community is that getting healthy and fit shouldn't be a journey done on your own but with others who are navigating the same challenges and victories. Everyone's journey looks a bit different, but we all have the same end goal; to be better than we were yesterday. So take a minute to make a quick post to let us know... - Why you joined - How long you've been on your own health and fitness journey - And any encouragement / victories for the ones in the same process

Back Exercises
While there is a CVS-length list of back exercises, these are a few that I have had good results with working in the rotation of my programming (and for all the ladies reading this, it's ok to work on building a strong back. Besides the obvious, "added strength", adding muscle to our upper back makes our waist look smaller. You're welcome.). Remember, in almost all your workouts, it's always a great idea to add in some form of isometric movement (isolating one side or one part of our body for the exercise) to nearly every lifting day. This helps keep us balanced / symmetrical, helps work certain muscle fibers differently and will promote overall strength. So in this case, doing a Single Arm Cable Row allows you to stretch the Lats a bit further than you would be able to on a symmetrical attachment pull. And if you don't have access to a cable row machine, you can lay facing an inclined bench and do single arm dumbbell rows. You won't get as much of a stretch as the cable row variant, but it'll still get the point across. Watch the video and try adding these to your next back day and see what you think. And if you have a favorite(s) back exercise, post it down below. We'll judge accordingly 😉.

What’s your routine
What is everyone’s workout routine/schedule? I love to see how people get their results and so on. I do cardio Monday through Friday Saturday is full body mild to heavy load 6-12 reps Sunday is full body light to mid load 10-18 reps with a focus on full range
