As Arnold says, the best exercise for your lats is just standard pullups (with a comfortable wide grip). For beginners, which includes myself, he recommends doing 50 pullups when working out your back. Now I can't do 50 pullups at all so I use an assisted weight machine. You should also do bent over rows for your lats. Wide grip pull downs are also good for your lats, but pull ups should be the main exercise for those. For your lower back doing straight leg deadlifts are really good as well as good mornings, both of these will also work your hamstrings. Hyperextensions are also good for you lower back
