Currently i train at home and only have an olympic bar, EZ bar, bench and squat rack. I already do Deadlifts, and rows for back and want to know how to get my back wider without a pull up bar.

yo find something tyo do pullups on..like a branch or a beam or pipe somewhere..
alright im thinkin about gettin a power tower with a place for dips and leg raises too
that would be great but in the meantime if u had an old swing set in the backyard that would work..u looking good as it is but i wide back is important
that can be you with a pull up bar..goal would be 3 sets of 10...neutral grip pullups..but 10 sets of 3 or 5 sets of 6 will work plus seated bench rows and bent over rows both of which require strict attention to form..you can do it..
it's a bench you sit on facing a stack of metal weights that are attached to a pulley.you use a attachment on ur end of the pulley and with u sitting with ur back straight use your arms to pull the attachment to your stomach..if u dont have access to this u can use the equipment used for cable flies and mimmick the same set up and movement..
dumbbell rows i rekon deleiver a good 50/50 for thickness and width
yup u can use dbs for bentover (mygeeto style) rows or one are row..for bent over u bend at the kness..back arched..db in each hand..pull up ur hands from knee to shoulder...for one arm row put right knee on bench with db in right hand lowered almost to floor pullup getting your elbow as high as you can and then reverse the stance and do the other side..I put a db on each side of the bench to do this..lol
i just got a pull up bar for my room time to get that back wide...i cant do wide grip though because the doorway is too small...will that play into how wid i could get
The best exercises for back width are medium to wide grip pull ups with weight and bent over barbell rows. Deadlifts will add thickness.
