[@samualwilliamson1187]

This is one of two of my favorite channels for providing useful information, especially with dumbbells. Great job!

[@gle0nard]

I appreciate how detailed you are in explaining the entire process. That's what drew me in!

[@GymGarageMan]

Was told I was too old in 40s started training in garage lifting rocks doing PUSH UPS on paint cans pull UPS on beams got ripped af at 52 years old!!!

[@charliehaven8517]

[@haddenindustries2922]

People who say 40 is too old are either jelly or ignorant. 40year is still peak level. Go get it GymGarageMan💪🏻😜

​@@yojiviriak675yeah I don't appreciate people in their 50's being called that. In my case I'm 53 and mody likely will never be a grandpa because I don't have any kids.

[@Mrbobcat7]

Never heard of the swimmers row but looks interesting. Will have to try it.

[@hathlete4ever916]

These exercises have definitely made a difference in my routine and my results when finished!

[@jamienice7173]

I must say.. The buffed dude playing the older head in the “N” sneakers that all of us guys will be in one day looks great! And is very entertaining to watch during this well spoken, educational video. Thank you for it.

[@brettcordes3602]

This channel is excellent. He really listened when remembering to “talk slower ‘cause you’ll be nervous.”

[@madMARTYNmarsh1981]

Cheers, mate. I'm learning a lot from your videos. When I was young (I'm almost - had huge lats. From about 11 years old I worked as a delivery boy, household furniture etcetera but it was mainly washing machines, cookers and fridge/freezers we delivered and because I was 'the boy' I always had to hold the bottom end. I assume that was the reason for the size I was as a youth because I didn't train. I played football (English) and Rugby, but no weights. When I joined the army I had to do a pull-up section, the average attained was 6, a good amount was 10, they had to stop me at 25 😂 Now, at my age and weight, I struggle to do 15 despite being fit and strong. I would like to improve that number, but my shoulders are buggered. My right arm is essentially paralysed due to a nervous system disorder in my right arm and leg. Unfortunately there isn't much I can do with my right side, but I do my best.

[@HellskyMr]

Very educative ! Nice

[@chrisoverbey5937]

I will be implementing that Swimmer Row 🏋🏻‍♂️

[@endurametrics7013]

Ok, even the music's starting to grow on me. I've watched the other guys - Athlean X, Nippard, Ethier, etc. - and they're good. I find I'm really impressed with this channel! It gets straight to the point, clearly explains the science and provides the studies. Perhaps he doesn't go with schtick or online personality, but the actual content is good.

[@daviddavies9996]

Another epic video 💪💪

Nice one bro

[@taiwati7472]

Thank you sir, this was very helpful 👍

[@KenanTurkiye]

Just a note to those who may be lat obsessed/dominant like I was: If you neglect your mid back, rhomboids etc, you'll end up with pain.

[@leftwinger764]

You got that absolutely right!

[@KenanTurkiye]

@@leftwinger764 Eventually and painfully I did. :/

[@chrisp5508]

Hi guys, it's great to be able to count on quality content, so I think it would be important to have a quick summary of what was said at the end of the video. thank you and in this way I already subscribed to the channel and left my like!💪💪💪👏👏👏

[@kisbob5254]

Its weird, because whenever I tried the underhand row, I couldnt feel a difference , compared to the overhand row. The single arm dumbbell row was the only excercise that truly activated my lats on a level that I hardly felt before, so I just do Overhand BB row and single arm DB rows, and also bent over DB raises for rear delts.

[@leftwinger764]

try this: With an overhand grip, bend your upper body almost level with the floor. And with an underhand grip, don't bend your upper body more than 20 to 30 degrees. And for both grips: make sure you very consciously row your elbows back and contract your shoulder blades. I am sure you will feel the difference. Good luck and let me know if it helped you.

[@kisbob5254]

@@leftwinger764 Nope, no matter how hard I squeeze and how hard I focus with my back, i just cant feel my lats working or pumped on the barbell rows, but they still grow. The only time I feel pump, is when I do the single arm DB rows.

[@leftwinger764]

@@kisbob5254 With heavier compound exercises like this, you just don't get a pump quickly (like an isolation exercise.) That does not mean that your muscles that you train with the exercise are not properly loaded. This is also evident from the fact that your back does grow. What you can do, as a test, is perform the exercise only with a barbell without or light weights. doing 15 to 20 reps. It is inevitable that you will feel it and maybe also get a pump. Then you know that with heavier weights you also put a good strain on the muscles.

[@HakuzaPK]

you're either lifting too heavy or not using proper form but tbf barbell rows are lowkey more for upper back/traps tbh@@kisbob5254 . Personally, I hardly do them

[@bradbo3]

Meadows rows have really helped my back get quite big. I use straps so i can use more weight.

[@TorBoy9]

Good explanation and exercises, thanks

[@rounaksubramanian1686]

How just wow bro you are doing a wonderful and brilliant work for all of us by making this video and telling about 7 best exercises for back for wider lats and keep it up and keep up the good work as always and take care Keep smiling always

[@taniamaham7934]

Great thank you

[@christopherduffy1703]

10:05 I actually like to use two ropes when doing this exercise. I get a crazy range of motion.

[@EfficientMan]

Swimmer row seems to be good idea.

[@chadcazares8142]

Always very informative and great advise

[@rohitkadam2809]

Always helpful...👌

[@OriginalPripp]

Reversed seated swimmer rows kills !

[@crimdan6036]

Really hard to think an Inverted row would not make such a lengthy list of lat builders. I love this channel and information. But in my opinion, they missed by omitting this exercise here.

[@leftwinger764]

For decades the bent-over barbell row, has been the mass-building back exercise, because it allows you to overload the lats with the most weight. The inverted row mimics the barbell bent-over row. With the inverted row, the bar is stationary while the body moves. It should be just as effective as the barbell row. the inverted row don’t stress the lower back as much as the barbell bent-over row. I would say do both and agree with you.

[@kayannanorthover2888]

Most of these workouts are irrelevant or unrelated to what I do, but I'll still listen 😢to😢😢the advise.

[@bkpickell]

What is the general consensus on weight? Heavy for 6 reps 4 sets or light for 20 reps and 3 sets. This has always confused me. I've been doing heavy, but I haven't been getting any stronger after six months. I just can't go up anymore on weight.

[@a.f.s.3004]

52,,,my back made some great gains from pull ups,,,strict, straight leg, full range. I do 3 sets of 15. Back has gained a lot of detail! 💪

@@mattbrennan647 I did a combination of a few things. For one, I cut out sugary foods such as cookies and icecream. I also cut out foods high in fats like pizza and other things. Last year, started training legs three days a week instead of 1-2 days.
