A VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF WHAT YOUR LATS DO
The main function of that lats will be pulling your elbow to your spine
As you can see here those lower lat fibres run more vertical - from the arm to the hip - and are better trained with movements that pull the arm more vertically (not fully vertical- that’s won’t line up well)
The upper lat fibres run a bit more horizontally so these will be better targeted with more horizontal movements, which pull the arm forwards and across.
So combine both in the same way you combine upper chest and more mid/lower chest movements.
That’s where you’ll get the best response from your lats
And get that wide V-taper we all want

Fat Loss week 7 wrapped up ✔️
A solid week on reduced food, more cardio and more steps.
0.5kg came off on average which isn’t a lot but we’re approaching the 80’s and visuals are much improved this week.
The pumped images are much better than these fasted shots but the fasted shots are a more accurate way to assess fat loss in most cases.
3 more weeks, 2-3 more kilos, let’s get stuck in.
Clips from posterior yesterday.
Deadlifts are starting to feel good again post injury.
10kg up from last week, felt great and I had much more in the tank. Coming for that 200x8 🎯
Followed by the usual back work (3/4 shown) and arms 💪🏼
A solid session all in. Very happy.
How to Perform Weighted Crunches on an Ab Mat for Maximum Range and Challenge
And how to add weight effectively by holding a dumbbell directly above your shoulders rather than on your chest. This positioning ensures you maintain tension throughout the entire movement for better results.
Leg day clips from yesterday in random order. Safe to say my quads are feeling it today!
A solid leg session, best one yet since I was wiped out by the flu a few weeks back. Feeling good, taken load back a bit on the hack and leg press but improved control and sensation.
Yes we need to get strong to have big legs but we also need to move load with intent to get the most stimulus from training.
Fat Loss Diet Week 6 ✔️
This week has gone pretty smoothly. But adjustments have been made and these next 3/4 we’re going to push the fat loss and pull off another 3-4kg before reversing out of this diet.
Performance is making a come back post illness but it’s quite where it was. That’s okay. The goal is the retain the strength level I’m at now.
Managed to do some slightly heavier deadlifts this week so that’s a win too!
