    cardio every other day,looking to add more width to my back so mostly wide grip chins,pull downs ect.. does this seem like a good idea,or has anyone had any experience with this type of routine?
    Not quite the same but I used to train my lower back separate to upper because I was working so hard on my deadlift at the time that after I was done with that was too wrecked to do bent over rows ect. That worked well for me.

    Exactly, thats why I would split it up every now and then. Deads can really take away from your ability to properly perform your remaining back exercies.....Or i would just hit deads later in the workout instead of first and just drop the weight a little.
