1:40 Throat pulls: Upper traps and the whole scap, even rear delts. 3:50 Face Pulls with Y raise: Mid and low traps. rear delts, rotator cuff, upper traps. general mid/upper back
@@marcliddell2975need to focus and isolate the upper back. Focus on your shoulder blades touching and pulling with your upper back and not your arms. Either way you will still get some arm usage but it helps a lot to focus.
That's part of why I lost faith in his "expertise." He's great for learning about proper form, but after 3 years I realized he just spends a lot of time yapping. I found much better weighlifting success with guidance from bodybuilder Brian DeCosta.
@@willk4862his advice is excellent to develop your knowledge and understanding of exercises. The problem I have with Athleanx is too much variety and variation. That's easily solved it you pick a few core movements then swap them out as you go; innovating your own routine.
this series was originally made by scotthermanfitness he taught me all the basics of working out - correct form and stuff. jeff should have given scott credit for the series, check out the original one by scott first.
@@Ahmad-os3siif you are a beginner you should focus on getting a strenght base in the big compounsa first, (Bench Press, Rows, Pull ups, Over Head Press, Squat, Dead Lift, Rdl, Triceps Dips and Biceps Curls) You don't need an advance routine. Working out 3 times a week and doing 3 - 5 sets of every compound should be your way to go. You should first master the form of each excersice and then start adding weight each session until reach at least, 2 plates bench, 3 plates squats and 4 plates deadlift. At that point you will be consider an intermediate lifter and then, you can switch to a program that adresses your personal weaknesses and stronght points.
My bench press and pressing power has considerably improved since doing face pulls (like Jeff), rotator cuff work, and lower/mid trap (Y raises). That upper back strength and tightness in bench pressing is what you need. The ability to retract and depress the shoulders has completely relieved my shoulder impingement and internal rotation
Could you do mid back next? That's an area I'm struggling to target and develop. Loving this series so far its helped me be more efficient in my workouts since time is now a limiting factor.
It's going to be pull ups and rows for the lats, plate raises or Y raises for the lower traps. Jeff hasn't advocated for plate raises/Y raise in a while but it's in a lot of his older videos.
a trap 3 raise will hit your mid back well. Its like a front raise with a barbell but done with your chest laying at a 45 on an incline, with VERY light weight to start. It's extremely humbling
It's very important to have the muscles in all areas of the back (top, mid, and lower). Because the muscles support the cervical, thoracic, and lumber parts of the spine-very very important!!
Jeff's mention of posture was made very fast but is VERY important for people that sit at a desk all day if you don't want rotator cuff issues. Trust me.
Interesting exercises (face pull I've seen done but never tried). And using the incline bench with a barbell I'd always do curls, never thought of it as a row for the back. Will definitely try this. Always learn something new here on Jeff's channel. Thanks Jeff Athlean-X Subscriber
Deadlifts with chin-ups & pull-ups (3-4 sets) (8, 6, 4 reps) Cable/Barbell row (3 heavy sets) Face pull variation (3 light sets) Lat pulldown (3 sets) Straight bar lat pullover (3 sets) DB shurgs (3 sets) This is my back workout inspired by a lot of your videos. Tell me if it's correct or not and it's I perform them the sequence I have written them above
@@nomnomyourmom on chest day I do OHP, on back day face pull takes care of rear delt and on arms day I do lateral raises. That's how I train my shoulders.
@@ketanshah7553 It deserves more than 3, rear delt's function is not just Transverse Abduction (Facepull) but also Transverse Extension (Throat Pull, High Boy Row in this video) Watch Jeff's perfect shoulder workout and 100 shoulder workout to get an idea
Also for me my personal opinion is having strong muscles in your back and general upper lower whatever helps you throughout the day just holding yourself up with your posture while you're doing your work if it's physical work factory constantly bending or just standing for long periods of time it kills your feet but if your back is strong enough you won't buckle because one little mistake and you can hurt yourself doing anything
@@BB-mq9qk yes unfortunately and when I was younger people would look at me as a human forklift but I'm just now getting back into working out again so but nevertheless it's still rough to be in a factory all day long better than being in a field you know but still
@@benjaminpujols1914 I too work in a factory in the aerospace industry, and I experience the same issues many of us deal with in terms of long hours on your feet and always bending or twisting in every direction. Working everything in the posterior regions has definitely helped me with preventing injuries on the job or having back, knee pain that many of my co workers deal with because they don’t exercise.
I remember seeing Jessie in Jeff's videos a few years ago. He used to be skinny but now his muscle development is amazing. Imagine if he follows a strict diet and gets leaner , I believe he can have a great shape. Btw, amazing video as always.
These are good; since I do not go to a gym and do not have an fully inclinable bench, I would like to see what can be done using dumbbells and (maybe) a Total Gym.
When I was in rehab 5 years ago, I really got into and began taking lifting seriously for the first time in my life. (I had dabbled here and there but never did much). I'm also an artist and while I was in that facility I found some random buff dude in a magazine to use as a reference for a drawing. Months later I discovered athlean x and Jeffs channel really became my bible for everything lifting. But I knew I had recognized him from somewhere... Then I realized he was the random "muscular man" I had drawn when I was in rehab. I don't believe in coincidences. Since rehab I have lost nearly 100lbs and undergone quite a body transformation by watching and applying the insane amounts of knowledge I've learned from watching Athlean X. Love you Jeff. You have helped change my life man!
Curious to see what you guys think about pull-ups and even weighted pull-ups. I've developed over time a good amount of strength by incorporating pullups each time in the gymb
Definitely great, more of a lat and middle back exercise. These are for upper back like rear delt and trapezius. Good to do one day focused on upper back and one day for lower back each week
For the face pull: I dont have two ropes, so I use Tie Down Straps and just wrap them around my hand. Works great in my opinion, and can get the perfect length.
Working out at home without this equipment, I’ve tried to implement these exercises with dumbbells. The throat pull seems a lot like the upright row, but I know you’re not a fan of those. It’s hard for me to see the mechanical difference. Thoughts or suggestions?
I have been working on muscles like this (ones you never focus on much) to get my performance and look even better. Another favorite for the inner back muscles is the SCAPULA PUSHUP. Basically a push-up position,, ,,arms stay stiff,, ,,body stays rigid ... begin by dropping your body down (like trying to touch your shoulder blades together) , then push the center out as much as you can. Hold each of these for atleast 5 seconds in atleast 5 reps. THANKS again for the asweome video content
This came at just the right time for me. I am not getting any more progress on my bench press (shoulder weakness) and I just got a massage yesterday and the therapist knew I was benching too much and separated my muscles in my upper back. Recommended bent over rows to help strengthen my scapulas.
I’ve always had that feeling. Like when you start developing the strength of all the muscles you can feel a webbing sensation of the actual fibers instead of everything crushing into itself
You're doing a great job,Keep up the good work! I am also very passionate about fitness, which is why I have recently created my own RUclips channel dedicated to fitness.
Eccentric overload on the face pull with the hand raise has translated to steady gains in the rest of my pull rotation. Also feel a lot more stable when I go to slow down weighted pull ups.
This channel just got 10 more coolness points. Letting the channel guest perform WITHOUT a narcisstic channelowner interrupting became very rare! MUCH RESPECT!
Awesome. Loving the combo exercises that both target many muscles, and are corrective / helpful in your general fitness. Thank you for explaining all this! One of the best videos
I would live to see a vid with a Bowflex-type home gym machine from Jeff - I find form to sometimes be much trickier as a newbie, i would SO love to see the pro/PT guidelines and Athlean-X type of advice. Whether or not that happens, thanks so much for doing what you do, guys, such solid and consistently outstanding and rigorous yet accessible content. Well done.
can you do 2 lower back exercises. looking for deadlift alternatives. dont want to do them as the risk reward just isnt it worth it for me. yeah i know if i learn to do it with perfect form every time then its a great exercise but it doesnt take a million times to injure yourself, just one day of lack of focus or too much weight and thats it. thanks
The thing I love most about this channel that not a lot of other channels do is Jeff isn’t just focusing on being big for nothing he actually focuses on explosive athleticism and coordination. Without those aspects it’s like having a crazy cool car that’s a trailer queen and never hits the track to have real fun with it doing what it was made for!
@@akswiff Not professionally but definitely for fun with his family,friends and community. An ppl around him seeing him not only look good but being able to do impressive things athletically are even more inspired then they would be because of that.
So great to see Jeff working! It was cool to see Swede Burns, Jessie, and the camer man Monsour after just recently returning from AX Live! Keep up the good work guys!
Hey Spidey! It was cool getting to know you at AX LIVE 2023! I completely agree with you. Jeff was 100% the same in real life as he is on his channel! Great week.
Can someone explain to me how to do lower back sit-ups on the floor without my spine hurting? I mean, every time I do an abdominal where you have to raise your legs, I feel that the lowest bone of my spine sticks to the ground and it hurts a lot.
very nice video. is it possible to post alternative home workout solutions alongside the workouts you can do at the gym? many of us workout from home for various reasons
Good thing Jeff brought in help on this one. Otherwise it would have been 1 - face-pulls, and 2 - face-pulls. Now we get 1 - throat pulls, and 2 - face pulls. Loving the variety lol.
I think most lifters don't have an issue building their upper traps. It's the mid and lower traps and other muscles around the scapula that are difficult to target.
Im not knockin it, but i think deadlifts or farmers, and a pull down or pull up of some kind, then a row of some kind. I'd think of face pulls more of a prehab excercise but important. So its really 4 excercises. The biggest one being a deadlift or farmer walk (hex bar for me).
I really like your videos and content. I unfortunately don't have access to the gym and just have Bodyweight. Could you do a series for the time crunched and time limited please?

Hey, Jeff. Can we get an updated total body routine? No equipment, preferably.
Interesting exercises (face pull I've seen done but never tried). And using the incline bench with a barbell I'd always do curls, never thought of it as a row for the back. Will definitely try this.
Always learn something new here on Jeff's channel.

How about only 1
Facepulls
I swear this guy can read minds. I was just saying to myself i need to find good exercises for upper back width. Thanks Jeff.

I always hear and see good upper back workouts. How important and what are good lower and mid back workouts?
Good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Mann!!! ... that Jessie is looking Jacked!!!
I think most lifters don't have an issue building their upper traps. It's the mid and lower traps and other muscles around the scapula that are difficult to target.
And for those without a gym membership? Like dumbbells, any exercise?

Ooooo... I like it! Can't wait to so these tomorrow. Thankin ya✌️

This is upper back, not back video
Any idea for dumbells instead of cable ?
Could anyone explain the difference in how each of these exercises target the upper back?
What does wide grip vertical pulls count as?
Lats/teres major
Upper back of course
Hi Jeff can you do a video on wh at corrective exercises to do and what conditioning exercises to do please.
Good back, Jesse, congrats for the efforts!
I really like your videos and content. I unfortunately don't have access to the gym and just have Bodyweight. Could you do a series for the time crunched and time limited please?
Pull-ups and inverted rows.
You can do pullups and get some bands. With the resistance bands you can work your upper-back
