Before & After 12 Months

Interesting. What's wrong with a pull down?

It's not necessarily wrong, but there are much better movements
Most people grab a pull down bar with an overhand grip as wide as possible thinking its gonna give them wide lats
But your body doesn't move like that
Its an unnatural movement compared to a nutaral grip, shoulder width high pull

I've noticed similar recently from going as wide and out as possible to bringing the elbows in abit and grip to abit wider than shoulder and focusing on pulling up to the bar rather than pulling the bar down if that makes any sense and lats have really felt the difference

MAG grips are good also as they remove the overhand grip which takes the forearms out of the movement and puts more emphasis on the lats

Yeah the boss has spoken!
I'll keep bringing it up occasionally until she gives in

OK, if we are doing 12 month progress pics
These are taken just under
First one was last June prepping for a comp, so obvs a little depleted
Second pic is a few weeks back after a really good year of diet and training
Back has always been a weak point so really been trying hard to work on it View attachment 73602View attachment 73603

Massive improvement on back there mate fair play!

Haven't got any before pics but just imagine a skinny little Italian man.
This was taken and the end of my last blast. Done 7 weeks on trt and now two weeks into the next blast now. Im no bigger though, probably holding a little more fat now tbh but I'm working on it.
