Back Anatomy & Training Program | Built By Science

[@rectbosun]

I was reading Dorians book some years back ( No pun intended), and the best thing I got out of it, is when he said you MUST learn to pull with your elbows and not your hands. Concentrating on pulling your elbows back and forgetting about using your hands other than to just grip the thing, is really all you need to do.

"After watching this video, you should have a phd in muscle building." My resume is looking pretty sharp now!

[@luizfigobr]

Instead of learning and aplying it to their daily training, people rather talk shit about the instructor. Amazing. He has a different focus in life and in his profession. Simple as that. He said it: its options to back workout, not all of it.

[@TheKrazyLobster]

So much quality in that body. Holy shit. What an amazing physique.

[@francoofme]

Kinda refreshing after years in gym, finally getting to know the science and anatomy about it. Thumps up!

[@AbsoluteFunction]

These videos really help, not just with knowing how they work but with knowing how to have good form. I was always doing Face Pulls thumb sideways which is why im guessing i would feel a little pain in my cuffs. Now that im doing them thumb up that made a BIG difference. Keep the videos coming guys!

[@kencole5251]

Love this series. Good to know what muscles are in play before and/or when you're working out

[@GMKDP]

+Bamboo training Too you it may seem like common sense but, when you first started didn't you research or ask a lot of questions?...........even so consider our generation it is the laziest generation (depends on where you live I guess). Humans are weak and barely use/understand their bodies (No not everyone but, a lot of people).

[@GMKDP]

***** He is educated. You don't need to workout to know how the body works.

[@369Shahin]

For the people who are like: "OMFG WHY IS HE SO SKINNY!?" Maybe he was too busy studying for a PhD OR maybe he's a different type of athlete.

[@369Shahin]

jim jones There are different type of atheletes with different physiques. Look at rock climbers.

[@369Shahin]

jim jones How do you know? Have you seen him topless? My coworker from a previous job looked slim, but in the locker room when he took his shirt off. The dude was chiseled like Frank Medrano.

[@helkwand]

+Apple Bee maybe he is a pile of lard, maybe not. He never claimed he would look like a ripped athlete, he just knows how to make you look like one, if you really want. Usually athletes pass on their experience of lifting, true. But he probably studied it and passes on what worked best on his clients. If it works, whats the big fuzz about?

[@sogekingsniperislandisinyo4184]

+Apple Bee Just because hes skinny doesnt mean he isnt in good shape, not everyone who is healthy feels the need to push to "perfection" or become an athlete or bodybuilder. I mean how many people coach football that dont play football professionally or havent ever been a good athlete but know allot about the strategy or how players play. Not every teacher is a good student, do as i say not as I do. Plus he could have sustained injuries or have health problems that keep him from being able to push himself that hard. You never know. All I got to say is he knows his shit im gonna watch all these that face pull is defiantly what my workout is missing thanks smart skinny dude!

Muscular Anatomy Lats (Latissimus Dorsi)- attaches from the front side of the humerus, to the scapula, to the lower thoracic spine, and finally ends at the connective tissues called the thoracolumbar fascia (lower back) Trapezius: Upper- runs from the skull and cervical spin (neck) and comes down and attaches to the clavicles Middle- run from the t1 or t4 in the spine and attach directly to the scapula Lower- runs from the lower middle spine, and runs up and attaches to the scapula Rhomboids- a deep muscle beneath the traps, run at an angle from the thoracic spine down the scapula Skeletal Anatomy Thoracic spine (upper back)- 12 unique bones running from the base of the neck to the beginning of the lower back; has ribs stemming Scapula (shoulder blade)- works in conjunction with the shoulder to create motion, uses back muscles Glenohumeral joint- works with the shoulder blade to create motion Motions Internal Rotation (turning the upper arm inward)- caused by the lats Shoulder extension (pulling arms down from flexion)- caused by the lats Scapular elevation (shrugging) - upper traps Retraction (pulling shoulder blades back)- mid traps and rhomboids Depression (sliding the shoulder downward) - lower traps Upward scapular rotation (lifting arms above head)- Upper Traps, Lower traps, and the serratus (muscle that spans the side of the rib cage that connects to the shoulder blade) Downward Scapular Rotation (bring the arms down from the upward position)- lower traps, rhomboids, and levator scapulae (muscle on the side of the neck, spanning from the upper neck to the top of scapula) Key Exercises Chin up- utilizes downward scapula rotation targeting lats Dumbbell Row- rhomboids and mid traps used to cause retraction Dumbbell pullover- develops the lats, utilizes overhead upward scapular rotation Face pull- builds the upper and mid back

Armeezy Kunzu well said dude. I remember first starting working out and this skinny dude was working there and we started speaking. The guy was giving me advice and I was like wtf...he's smaller than me...till he shoulder pressed almost twice my personal best in front of my eyes. Turns out the dude was a boxer. Didn't want to pack on too much mass but he knew how to and he was stronger than half of the big dudes in the place. Never judge anyone.

I have a tip for next videos, show people how to stretch there muscles too :) Especially trapezius is often full of trigger points, so some post izometric relaxation (it is not stretch as u know, but can help a lot) is great. And maybe I would show other muscles too and talk abobut back and shoulder together, because glenohumeral muscles ar so important. And for example m. levator scapulae often causes pain around C2. M. teres minor, major, supraspinatus because of rotator cuff etc etc. You guys are great:) ppl who want to educate more will appreciate it, it can prevent many injuries :P

[@saadatfaiz6376]

Not getting any desired results? You MUST have been doing at least one of the three: Not working out with proper form/range of motion. Not putting much effort in. Not having the decency to eat right. Not getting enough rest/sleep. Unless whatever you desired your physique to be was impossible for your body (with its genetics) to reach.

[@justinmarquez6954]

One thing they didnt mention is time under tension do a weight you can hand but is hard for 8 to 12 reps and when do these make sure you really squeezing the muscle focus on what your doing mind body connection is very important when lifting dont forget your compound movements such as bench deadlifts and squats add in isolation workouts along with them. Thing is you need to mix your workouts up and try different works outs i do this and i am crazy sore after trying different exercises that typically workout the same muscle. But its a different movement so the body is confused. I would say try mixing it up every 3 to 6 months and see how it works. Practice your form, if your not feeling the burn then your losing gains as the saying goes no pain no gain. Get you nutrition on point. Its no easy if were easy then everyone would be jacked.
