UPPER BACK THICKNESS 101

[@theovercomer2006]

That movement is also going to hammer those rear delts!!

[@PG.Coaching]

Yes!

If you can talk about working lower Lats, for those of us who have wider hip bone structures and have that weird hourglass divot, it’ll be a lifesaver lol

[@PG.Coaching]

No need to overthink “lower lats”, just get stronger at your 1A rows, pull-ups and pulldowns. Throw in pullovers you connect with and you’ll be covered!

[@anujshukla1971]

@ thanks, coach. Quick question about my rowing progress. I do barbell rows for working sets of 6-10 at 160lb, currently my bodyweight is 174lb. I’m in my early 20s. What’s a good goal to have in mind? A weight goal for example?

[@JamesM-kc7tx]

Great videos bro

[@PG.Coaching]

Glad it helped!

💯💪

Front squat also puts insane thickness on the upper erectors but obviously it’s a leg exercise

[@levili1194]

Hypertrophy by isometry is something close to zero… would be way smarter work your erectors directly

[@PG.Coaching]

Front squats are lowkey good for upper back, but they didn’t make the list cuz there’s still way better lifts that are more specific

Can you do a video on hitting all 3 areas of the lats? I PERSONALLY struggle on lat pulldowns and have never felt them working my lats. People say to retract your scapula then pull the bar but I don't get how this works (the retracting) Then pulling for the lats.

[@PG.Coaching]

No need to retract scapula on a lat pulldown. You need scapular depression (shoulders far from ears; opposite of a shrug). For hitting all 3 parts of the lats; get stronger at pulldowns and pull-ups that you connect with, one arm rows with the elbows close to the body (landmine, dumbbell, machine) and you can throw in pullovers as well!

@@PG.Coachingwhat about isolating lower lats ?

[@userunknown1578]

​@@kingzofwar_7774 You can't isolate your lower lats.
