Dumbbell Pullovers are the only exercise that fries my lower lats. Can't get the same effect with cable or machine pullovers for some reason. Will continue doing them for sure. Lengthened partials after my pull ups, pulldowns, and rows have reached failure in full ROM has also been giving me some new gains lately. Loving these training methods!

This last year, I've been training at a new comercial gym at my town. Is the first high quality comercial gym nearby, so of course is usually super full at peak hours (when I can usually train). So lately I'm prioritizing exercises that are practical to me. I cannot stand waiting for one of 6 guys to free a cable station to do my thing, same with machines. Also, the truth is that most of the exercises that I love are not dependent on these fancy equipments, I'm happy with a rack, a bench and something to hang from. Not thinking that much over what variation is more optimal has made training more fun and consecuentially has given me my best gains ever.

Awesome video with a nice balanced message. As you indicate, we don't actually know whether optimized techniques, such as doing pull arounds from lower than vertically overhead, actually make much of a difference, and your takeaway message--"just get in there and train"--is wise. Playing around with angles and lines of pull does make things interesting and fun, but nobody knows whether it's really all that helpful (much less necessary) to drag a bench over to a cable machine for pull arounds or doing diagonal pulls with one knee on the floor. By the way, the lats also contribute to shoulder adduction, and for that purpose, they may be more active at higher ranges of shoulder adduction. I mention this because, although not optimal, a shoulder adduction movement like pronated pull downs or (better yet) pull ups will hit the lats nicely (though not in isolation from other muscles, including the pecs). A lot of lats have been built on the basic pull up, no matter what some biomechanics gurus may say.

Can't argue the general point, but another consideration is overlap between workouts. I do deadlifts and SLDLs (different workouts), so I have to choose back exercises carefully. I love landmine rows, but I haven't been doing them, because I have to think about a workout I might be doing in 2 days, or that I did 2 days ago. On the positive side, traps & erectors get a lot of stimulus on leg day, so I focus 80% on lats on back day.

I often find that a certain part of a video is the gleaming treasure within. For me, the gem of this video is the insight that not all rows are harder in the shortened position, as I had for some time thought. In particular, the game changer for me is the idea that exercises like the T-bar row, the landmine row, and the pullover are hardest in the lengthened position, thereby not only offering the hypertrophy benefits of lengthened partials but potentially bringing more gains in full ROM as well due to the challenge in the lengthened position. I'll have to give some thought to fully understanding why this is so, but I'll definitely be making use of this insight since, in the gym, the T-bar row machine has always been a favorite while at home I make much use of the landmine.

Amazing video! The only thing I could nitpick is lat pullover and lat prayer modification. I feel like making concentric phase of the exercise harder would only make this exercise worse, at least according to current scientific bias of lengthened positions. Normal pullover where dumbbell doesn't do much when above you allows you to do more reps in lengthened position then the modified version as you will simply have to use more strength to get the dumbbell into the same position in the modified version. My only problem with lat prayer is the bench angle you chose there. At the bottom of the stretch the cable just pulls you up and not really back and up like it does during all the rest of the exercise so angling it more forward so that the cable could pull you back a bit when your hands are above your head is probably much better as you won't lose that muscle tension.

I’ve found it exceptionally difficult to build back thickness.. unsure if it’s a matter of just needing to bulk up on overall mass more. My lifts horizontal pulling movements are all pretty strong, but it doesn’t seem to translate well to mass. Much love Eugene!

I get the most out of pullovers by having very bent elbows while laying on a tall, flat bench, not perpendicularly. It seems like the lats function and are fruitful with fluid and deep stretches. This makes sense to me because of their now vestigial role in brachiation.

tldr: lats: *-wide grip vertical pull* (any wide grip pulldown or pullup variation you enjoy, make sure you pull the bar down far enough to actually work your lats) *-any row, pulldown, pullover or pullup with your elbows tucked* (despite these being different movements they work your lats similarly and the nuanced differences in them wont make a big difference just pick any pull with your arms tucked) upper back: *-any row with your elbows flared about 90°* (let your shoulder blades move freely, squeeze them together at the top of the rep and let them spread apart at the bottom chest supported will be a bit better but all variations will work) *-any row with your elbows flared about 45°* (let your shoulder blades move freely, squeeze them together at the top of the rep and let them spread apart at the bottom, chest supported will be a bit better but all variations will work) spinal erectors: *-any hip hinge as part of your glute and hamstring work* (if you choose a bent over row as one of the upper back exercises then that will work your spinal erectors amazingly as well)

Very Excellent video! I know the premise was to build muscle for better back gains, etc... However, on one part of the video on a lat pull down machine. It was "slightly" frown upon going fast and NOT in a control manner(or as oppose to..), etc.. * I see & agree with your point.. However, in active sports like basketball or combat sports. Etc... The tempo should be change with light, to moderate weight - To develop explosive movement.... However, this video was NOT about that! But developing the back to be explosive "I am almost certain" you would agree changing the "Acute vairables" such as quick but safe explosive mv't. Lastly, your video was Amazing, well planned & informative! Thank you much ❤ for sharing! ~ Cheers! Sorry for any typos

Unpopular opinion: Using variables that activate more your target muscle isn't necessarily superior. What you need is an exercise that makes THAT muscle be the one that goes to failure before the rest. Once you got it, it doesn't matter if you need 8 or 15 reps to get it to failure (you will need less reps the more that exercise isolates that muscle and more if it's activating more muscles around it). If you went to failure, you've definitely stimulated it regardless of having trained it in a way or another, and gains will be pretty similar. I'd personally do exercises that don't isolate some muscles perfectly but make the movement natural and comfortable to go through rather than doing some movement patterns that feel weird. You'd win an extra 5% hypertrophy in that muscle the other way, but you'd also be losing that extra 5% to the muscles activated in those movements that don't isolate as much.

Yet they are trained isometrically which is the worst way to do that. Deadlift mistly rely on your lower body to pick up the weight and for your arms just to hold it in place. So i thing that's a miss of 1st one.
