It is just me, or would anyone else want to see him re-do his push/pull/legs… upper/lower… and full body split workouts using his new information as his other videos are a year or more old?
Tahnee kicks ass!! Thank you Tahnee!! And thank you to Jeremy and the team for recognizing the under representation of women. Men often underestimate how important their voice is when they speak on that issue but it carries such a strong and positive message so thank you!
For those with not much time to watch. - 2 Best overall: deadlift, bent-over barbell rows - 3 Best middle/upper back: Cable row (elbows angled out), Dumbbell chest supported row, Wide grip chest supported machine row. - Best lower traps: Incline prone Y-raises - 4 Best lats: Lat focused row (elbows in, lean forward), pull ups, lat pulldown, chin ups.
@@idlannizam74 it's all explained at 10:00 on the video - pulls will work the lats, but elbows close to the body will emphasise the lats more, like a close-grip row or pull down 👍
I like how you showed all the exercises in little boards in the end of the video that way I can just take a SS and always look at the best exercises you guys found, you are a great help and immediately after I started listening to your tips I felt much more growth keep it up cuz I appreciate it man
I’ve been following you for years and I just wanted to say, I really appreciate you for everything. My fitness journey has been phenomenal with your insights to everything🙏
Thank you Tahnee!! I have a chronic illness (EDS) and it’s really important that I strengthen my back. without your participation I would’ve had a much harder time finding information that will keep me out of a wheelchair for longer. Seriously thank you
Dude I've been waiting for this ever since you did it with shoulders. Thanks so much! Already tried some of your previous recommendations and really helps
A quick spreadsheet with the results table would be really helpful for when we want to mix up exercises. Personally I have recently been enjoying the Cable Lat Prayers and am interested in how they stack up against the the more standard seated Lat Pulldown.
I swear on my entire existence very close grip weighted pull-ups as in your palms facing away with them very close 2 inches apart on the bar will be the very greatest thing for your lats possible
What happened to posting all the results like you did for the chest study? That was crazy useful in helping pick potentially useful movements, especially for those old guys among us who may have some mobility/joint issues.
Same here. I deadlift twice a week (Once conventional, once RDL) so until my split is done bent over rows aren't an option for me as my lower back would already be heavily fatigued and be the limiting factor. I went to his blog to hopefully find the full breakdown of all the exercises and its corresponding EMG data and it wasn't there
God bless you, Jeremy. You cannot imagine how many guys you've saved from injury and steroids. I write to you from Goainia, a little town I am volunteering in Brazil, they use rebars lodged into concrete cans or logs to train on wooden apparatuses. Your vids are helping me show these kids how to not injure themselves as their ticket out of poverty is usually fighting and athletics.
I’ve been following you for years and I just wanted to say, I really appreciate you for everything. My fitness journey has been phenomenal with your insights to everything
Fantastic video! I really like this series and appreciate the scientific approach! It’s also really cool that you’re a local! I grew up in Vancouver. It’s awesome to know there’s such great talent in the neighbourhood! Keep up the exceptional work!
Goat for uploading this. My back workout has always been mid and doesn't look that good compared to the rest of my body. Gonna see some crazy results in a couple of months hopefully
For me as I do pull-ups, Seated rows and lat pull downs and lat focused seated machine absent in gym. Modification I required for back Day: Overall Back : Dead lifts Upper and mid Back: Wide grip seated row Lower Back (Lats) Pull-ups Lat pull downs. Lower Traps: Incline prone Y -Raises.
I bought a program a month ago. It’s a lot.. but I’m easing into it and seeing some great results. I look forward to your videos each week to implement new techniques and exercises. Keep up the good work! Ps thanks Tahnee🎉
The point I’d like to make about the inverted row is that it is one of the easiest movements to progress. You can place your feet on an object to increase the ROM and over time keep increasing the ROM, you can put a weight plate on your chest, and finally you can use rings or TRX straps to turn it into a completely different movement. I’m currently doing rows on a TRX setup with my feet on an 18” box. I love inverted rows. They’re one of my favorite exercises of all time.
Yeah nobody should sleep on inverted rows. Before I was able to get in to a gym and start using free weights, inverted rows did all of my back building and it built a solid base.
thanks tahnee! Im digging the scientific validity angle in including tahnee, it gives us viewers a more full understanding of the benefits of the excercises, AND its good for kinesiology too as like you said, more subjects, across a wide variety of different types of people, makes the data more credible and accurate. Instant like and sub.
I love the content all the way through in this video💯very helpful!! Everyone will have there own muscle build but with the different body types and gym experiences you could actually make a full program that’s accurate and not biased based on experiences
Thanks Tahnee 😁 as a woman, I’m grateful for your participation in this experiment. We are underrepresented af in these muscle activation studies (Also my bad if I spelled your name wrong 😅)
I have done standing Y exercises with 10 lb weights but never the prone Y's until I hit the gym tonight! also, I am going to lighten up the weights, lean forward, keeping the elbows tucked in and do those lat rows! very impressive! Thanks, and thanks Tahnee for your help! OH, I do the dead lifts on both back and leg days, with upper body days in between
Single arm rows and straight arm lat pull downs are my absolute favorite lat workouts, they’re the only workouts i can truly feel in my lats, especially if you pull to full activation.
Great series, Jeremy, this is a really splendid way to show growth in individual muscles or in muscle groups! And thanks to Tahnee and F to your your wrist strap! As for deadlifts, I actually do a Upper-Lower Body split so I just include it in my Lower Body days, which happens to be my leg days.
@@nonfictionone I was actually debating between a Upper-Lower and PPL split back in August when I was updating my workout schedule, I just chose Upper-Lower because it seemed better for my usual schedule since I exercise late at night.
Oh man I wush I found your channel earlier You really changed my life, thanks to your content i started working out, also I was working in food delivery for a year, and thanks to u finally made a channel about fitness, now feel like I'm where I should be, working hard and hope one day my 100 subs will become 100k and I'll quit delivery! Best wishes from Ukraine man, keep it up!
I really think it's very smart to add deadlifts, specially rdl's on your back day, because you can add maybe 3 or 4 sets of leg curls and you get done with the hamstrings, like start with your rows/pulldowns go to rdl's (will still use your back) and since u already doing rdls just add some leg curls and u're done. And on your leg day you can focus more on quads and since you dont need to train hams on that day you have more time to maybe add the calvs, shoulders, abs, etc.. that's just my opinion
The deadlift is indeed good at activating your back muscles, however once again, they are mostly used to stabilize your back during the movement. Thus is including them in your leg-workout beneficial for your back muscles over a longer period of time. I wouldn't replace them with, for example, bent over rows, since that exercise IS mainly focused on activating your back muscles. Great job on the video, Jeremy. Hope to see more content like this.
Thanks for the content!! I was watching on the TV, but I felt obligated to pick the phone, subscribe and like the video just because of the content high quality
I do deadlifts on core day along with primarily lower back training. But I toss in pull-ups and push-ups wheverever I can in any workout because I think they're amazing exercises that people really shouldn't underestimate.
Hello, first of all congratulation for your videos! Could you show the list (ranking) for each muscle region as you did for shoulders and chest? This way we can check if our preferred exercises were considered and their positions in the list. For example: reverse pec dec machine for upper back.
I would love for you to do a video and see your take on minimalistic training and the best workout plan to go with that. I understand that not many people can be in the gym for 1-2 hours a day but still want to maximize training within
Hope you enjoyed this one! You can download the free back workout routine here: builtwithscience.com/backworkout . Enjoy! See ya next time for glutes 🍑!
Abs!!! Why glutes.
Peace, Islam is the truth. Read the Qur'an

Wut in tarnation is a reverse bent-over row?
@@DrSpooglemon
Bending over rows with the grip reversed

It is just me, or would anyone else want to see him re-do his push/pull/legs… upper/lower… and full body split workouts using his new information as his other videos are a year or more old?
This is not new information, EMG based studies have been around for years and Jeremy used data from them
It's all bullshit anyway.
Yes please do
Just take all the exercises from the individual muscle videos and combine them to make a pull/push one.
THIS

For lats, is it better to do wide lat pulldown or normal lat pulldown?

A quick spreadsheet with the results table would be really helpful for when we want to mix up exercises. Personally I have recently been enjoying the Cable Lat Prayers and am interested in how they stack up against the the more standard seated Lat Pulldown.
I enjoy it very much
My favorite kind of prayers when I worship at the House of Fitness!
It is obvious that you put so much efforts, I appreciate.
I swear on my entire existence very close grip weighted pull-ups as in your palms facing away with them very close 2 inches apart on the bar will be the very greatest thing for your lats possible
I’m just surprised you haven’t perished
I like the added touches of humor and bits of personal life events. Well done and I appreciate what you do my friend!
Thanks Tawny!

Yup , Deadlift is terrible for back hypertrophy … High Activity comes from stabilizing and using really heavy weight . It’s overrated
