Lat Progress Update For Comp: 9 Weeks Out!

welcome back to another #tutorial today we're focusing on my back and lats. previously I explained how it was a shortfall of mine and required more work. I've since implemented #hypotrophy and removing rests from sets which increases time under tension and its really starting to pay off.

We still need to focus on shoulders and rear delts but you can see them starting to improve also. Will everything be up to where I want it to be in time for comp day, maybe not. But it is about being the best I can be on stage. With 9 weeks out before I step on stage for my first time it's a really daunting experience, one that I know I will never forget.

While I am self concious of my shortfalls I am wise enough to know that many other people will be experiencing the same. We all have our flaws and the only thing you can do when you get on stage is to promote the aspects of your body that you know are winners. For me this is chest and Biceps as it's just how I have developed over time. The reason why I focused so heavily on back was to beef up for when I turn around on stage.

You don't want to have this great front and then once you turn around an unworked and underdeveloped back. So I needed to put in the hard yards with wide grip rows, pull downs and extensive training to enhance my back. It doesn't need to be par for par with my front but it does need to be a show stopper.

I think I am really starting to get there and with 9 weeks to go, we'll be able to continue to make some good progress
