      You can look upto my transformation and how i completely transformed my back especially my lower lats. I would say the best things that worked for me is Rack pulls,lower lat lat pulldown with rope or any grip that gives you a free range of movement and you can really squeeze that lower lat region, single arm seated row, hyper extension. The main thing putting a good amount of load and tension in it. Also yes it comes down to giving it time to grow. I actually have divided my back days in a way where day one focuses a little bit more on lower lat region (with ofcourse a bit of upper back region) and day two is more on upper back

Not long ago, I apply the T = r x F into my training and the result are outstanding ... rly looking at my training and the time in the gym and exercise choice more from a physicist standpoint and less from an average Joe perspective.... understanding training of a given muscle in different lengths, understanding the moment arm and the force vector in a given machines or exercises in general automatically cut out the garbage ones and show better options.... not to mention that the thinking how to make the garbage one better one is extremely funny for me .... sometimes everybody in the gym is looking what the hell am I doing, but I know my sh*t....my favourite is Barbell Hip thrust with low pulley attachment connected to the bar ... Top position is overload by the weight on the bar while low (the stretched one), which lose Torque coz of moment arm (if only bar is used), is overload by the low pulley attachment and its load ....

    I've been training for almost 2 years and couldn't feel any pump or soreness iny lats... only in the teres and traps and rear delts.
    I made gans in my lats, but these are obviously noobie gains, so I decided to finally try something new, and I bumped into a video from John Meadows where he shows us the One-Arm BB row and holyyy cow IT HELPED ME A LOT. It put a much higher sretch on my whole back and I had to play around with my feet placement to feel the lower lats too , and finally, I GOT LAT PUMP.
    It depends on person if you need to place your legs forward or backwards, also experimenting with your hands' pulling direction as you said, but once you feel the pump in the right place, you will know its working!

  • @N1education

    The lower or iliac division of the lats can be targeted quite well and biased significantly. It attaches to the iliac crest and lower ribs giving it a significantly different line of pull, rom, and orientation in respect to the rib cage. The argument for the pecs applies to the lats without having to go behind the body because 1- the insertion point does go posterior, but 2 because the rib cage acts as a fulcrum the fibers are able to act in a sagittal humeral extension while still having a respective inferior-superior force on the humerus. We have been able to bring these specific fibers up in many people using pulldowns that target the illiac fibers directly. Additionally the most upper thoracic fibers have a upward pull and are as different as the clavicular and costal pec . To say you can target specific pecs and not lats, would go against the mechanics, the data, and our real world observations and anecdotes. In your pulldowns where you are utilizing the side bend, this will prevent you from targeting those iliac fibers well which is maybe why you have this opinion. Happy to discuss - Kassem

      @HypertrophyCoach  3 роки тому +36

      Cool feedback!
      Like I said in the video, I think maybe you can bias different portions of them. So I’m not sure where there’s a disagreement on here. Magnitude of results maybe? Personally I wouldn’t promise a specific outcome, but If you guys are producing massive lower lats, keep killing it!
      I guess our slightly different opinion comes my view of the ribs as an anatomical pulley, not a fulcrum. And even though the ribs change the direction of pull (insertion tissue direction relative to the origin), the humerus position of a fully shortened “upper lat” vs a fully shortened “lower lat” doesn’t change the humerus end position much, comparatively to the difference of humerus position of a fully shortened “upper” vs “lower” pec fibers. Which is what I meant by the front vs back of the body comparison. (I know direction of force application can effect fiber biasing of course - why I think maybe you can likely bias them).
      Either way. We’ll likely just have a little bit of a difference of option on this one. Which is fine. Good for your business. People can just hit you up for big lower lats.
      And I’m happy to discuss. You still have my number. Unless you prefer the comment section?

    • @N1education
      @N1education 3 роки тому +22

      @@HypertrophyCoach I commented here for the benefit of the audience. Not trying to be disrespectful, but presenting the counterpoint. For sure magnitude is the key difference here, in that I would say it’s quite significant. And it’s definitely on par with the magnitude to which we can bias the pecs, both mechanistically and from what we can measure. Anatomically the respective difference of a fully shortened upper (thoracic) lat versus a lower (iliac) lat are quite similar to the respective chest divisions. The lower pec and lats are both shortened with humeral depression and the upper pec and lats in elevation. Your looking at around 20 degrees difference in shoulder extension between the upper and lower lats and 25 on the pecs if you measure pure sagittal plane, but if you measure in the planes of the tissue they are almost identical.
      .
      Hypertrophy is incredibly hard to measure, and it’s true we can only bias not isolate. So I’m careful what I do claim, but this is one I’m pretty confident in, and for sure confident the magnitude is right on par with the pecs because mechanically they are basically a mirror when you look it things in all planes and and full ROM.

      First of all, I'm not by any means, expert in biomech. so i can only speak from anecdotal experience (mine & people i helped).
      IMO you can definitely target the specific area of lats by way you set up and elbow path (pulldown - illiac or rows - lumbar and thoracic).
      I used set up and cues that i saw on N1 videos and it made huge difference in my training but also in training regular, everyday people and advanced athletes as well.
      And better thing in all this, the progress can be measured bc people who didn't even now that they have lats, now have them. The best thing is...i just showed them the movement, set them up and after work done they alone could show which lat division they "worked" ( don't wanna say "felt").
      Watch on that shoulder extension, add slight adduction (inward arm path) and don't include any thoracic ext. so that elbow don't go past your torso, don't rotate your torso (that's not function of lat) and your body will take care of itself and any of 3 lat divisions you wanna target/ be more specific about

    Training back entirely is to hit it at every single arm angle.
    Big key is to initiate with the elbows and Not the wrist and biceps.
    Way too many people are using their biceps as the main puller when doing back routines and nothing wrong w it but if your intent is to train back then Use the back to move the weight.

    This video is funny. I can give a single workout and tip that makes this entire video useless:
    Close grip barbell rows, making sure they cue themselves to try to "pull the barbell apart" at the top end of the range of motion, while making sure they don't create too excessive of a back arch. Go try it. Done.
    Secondly, single handed bended cable pulldown. Sit next to cable machine, make sure line of pull/cable is to your side/10-15 degrees in scapular range, everyone can choose what feels best for them. Get that elbow to your hip, and then bend the thoracic cavity to the side, keeping the lumbar neutral, beautiful contraction but the eccentric is literally on a different level, its on its own dimension brother.
