  • Build a complete back with this workout - athleanx.com/x/the-complete-ph...
    It won’t take long for you to see why I’m calling this the best back workout video ever. In fact, I’m putting the science back in strength in this one to show you not only how important it is to train every major muscle in your back but to not neglect some of the most commonly ignored muscles. With back exercise examples for how to attack each area, you’ll feel more prepared than ever to hit your next back workout with a new appreciation for back training.
    To start, it is important to break down the back into different zones. The most commonly focused on area is the lats. The lats are a large muscle group that get trained in every popular back workout. They can be hit with exercises like pullups, lat pulldowns, etc. Any exercise that adducts your arm and brings it into your sides is a good candidate for helping you build bigger lats. That said, you may feel a bigger stretch on the lats by performing an underhand version of the pulldown.
    As you can see, the anatomy of the lats explains how a larger stretch can be felt on them if you allow your elbow to travel in front of and away from your body. When doing a traditional lat pulldown the elbow stays in line with the torso which prevents the degree of stretch you feel in the alternative grip.
    The teres major is a muscle that assists the function of the lats. This muscle is also important for filling out the thickness of the back by sitting just above the latissimus dorsi. You can train this muscle more specifically by widening your grip during a lat pulldown. Keep your hands as far apart on the pulldown bar as you can and you will feel the extra focus being driven towards the teres major.
    The traps are by far one of the most extensive and largest muscles of your back. With fibers in the upper traps running in one direction and those in the lower traps running in a different direction, you can preferentially accentuate the work of each area by changing the position of the angle of pull. A good traps exercise therefore must position the arm at an angle while the lower traps can be hit nicely on the inverted y exercise.
    The rotator cuff and lower back are no less important to complete back development. See the best back exercises for hitting these areas and start not only building a bigger back but making sure that yours stays healthy for a long time.
    For a complete back workout that helps you to not only build a bigger, thicker, wider back but ensures that yours stays injury free forever, head to athleanx.com and get the ATHLEAN-X Training System. Use the same exact workouts that top professional athletes use to stay injury free and dominate on the field.

Bending and twisting different ways can pull a lot of oxygen and put some stress on you but having a stronger back that can help a lot

    I love how you break things down and explain the science behind working the muscles. It really helps me to understand and visualize exactly what I’m supposed to be doing. I thought I was a visual learner but I can’t go off watching how someone works something out and apply it to myself, that never worked. Thank you so much!!

      damn that sucks, my highschool coaches were also the weight-training coaches and we had a young guy and the head coach who was like 70, they were beasts and I still to this day do the workouts they taught me. Specific teachers and coaches can really change/affect what and how you learn.

  • @valeriebenson1630
    @valeriebenson1630 4 года назад

    Thank you for all your wonderful videos. I’ve been a fan of weight lifting since I was 20, however I just followed an amateur approach that I enjoyed and helped me stay in reasonable shape. As I’ve aged my body has made me pay more attention to what I’m doing and how I’m doing it. After dealing with a car accident last year and recovering from torn muscles I was still plagued with pain. MRI shows sever atrophy in the right Teres Minor. I love that your videos are succinct and packed with so much information. In this 12 minute video, you taught me more about what I need to do to recover. I’ve had this pain for years but it kept getting dismissed as a symptom of other things, office job, etc. I’m looking forward to being allowed back on the gym and your materials make me feel encouraged, educated and excited.

    Jeff provides top-notch advice, explain things clearly, and presents well-reasoned arguments, explanations, and demonstrates directly using his own mind-muscle connection power.
    I get psyched up and want to work out from just watching this man.
    The value of this information, people! and without disruptive ads.
    This channel must be Best of RUclips if there is such a thing.

I've been watching a bunch of your guides and they're just rad. Given me a lot more confidence and, obviously, a lot more knowledge on how not to hurt myself. I appreciate your liberal use of anatomical language and colored ink and am very grateful for your dedication. Thank you so much and keep it up my man!

I wasn't able to do the trap exercise you showed with the cable or band because I couldn't get the hang of it, but everything else was amazing! I have shoulders that crunch and dislocate easy and I've been trying to figure out ways to stabilize AND strengthen instead of just beating a dead horse with just normal strengthening and the Y flyes and the W external rotation (standing up slightly bent b/c not enough flexibility laying down) are a SAVING GRACE. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
