Rachel McLish trained back twice a week. Below is her routine:
Pulley Row:
Bent-over Row:
Arm Routine
Monday and Thursday
1. Pressdowns
2. Dips 1 cycle
3. Extensions – 2 sets
4. Regular curls
5. Chins 1 cycle
6. Preacher curls – 2 sets
The first two exercises should be done together with no rest between. The third exercise, extensions, can follow after a minimal rest. Do one cycle of the first two exercises and two sets maximum for the third. That will give you a total of four sets for the triceps.

It wasn't made or carried in pharmacies in the 1940's to early 1950's.
