I want to start working on my back more and I'm looking for some ideas... what does your "back day" workout routine look like?

I do a full body workout rotation (every 2-3 days depending on my schedule). For my back I do dumbbell rows - inclined, bent over, and renegade. The renegade rows are more of a core/back than just back (plank position, supporting yourself with a dumbbell in each and and then pulling it up towards your body), but the other two are more for the upper back. I'm sure I could do more, I just haven't figured out what "more" is yet lol.0

Deadlifts as my core exercise, then pull-ups, lat pulldowns and rows as accessory work.0

Bent over rows, good mornings, close grip, medium grip, and wide grip lat pull downs. Occasionally some Romanian dead lifts if I'm bored.0

I don't have a specific back day, but I do deadlifts and bent over rows specifically for back. You can also do lat pulldowns, pull-ups, renegade rows, rowing machine and reverse flys.0

Power cleans, Deadlifts, Pull-ups, and Pendlay/Bent-over Row. Big lifts give the biggest benefits!0

Deadlifts, more deadlifts, then kroc rows0

your back, along with your core, are muscles that improve as you build all around.
dead lifts, squats, bench press, and over head press should be the four lifts you build your work out around.
then you can use accessory work to build and strengthen areas where you are weaker. for instance, my lower back is weak and it effects my dead lifts, and squats. hell, it even effects my overhead press. so on leg days i do good mornings, weighted hyper exctensions, and pendlay rows, which are all back/lower back exercises.
as far as upper back exercises, that part is in relation with your upper body lifts, such as chest press and overhead press. accessory work includes inverted body weight rows, push ups, and pull ups.0 -
Rows

Deadlift
Power Cleans
