Back Training Tips

During any back movement think about the arc your elbows should be going through NOT pulling the weight towards you. As always, use INTENT to place the tension where you want it. Now get out there and grow!

If you want a strong back you cannot ONLY work the big muscles. The scapular retractors are often overlooked for direct work yet they should initiate almost EVERY back movement!

Spinal flexion and extension are an important part of optimal back training. Follow these tips to make sure you aren't limiting yourself!
