If you want a v-taper shape where your upper body is relatively larger than your diaphragm, developing a wider inversion is a must.
I want to go over 8 nifty exercises that will help you develop a wider back quickly, and I'll also go over specific training methods that you should incorporate, to make your back bigger in range and consistency.
In the end, I will also show you how many sets and reps you will need to do to incorporate these exercises into a workout. As we go through these, keep in mind that to effectively cause a greater inversion, you will need to do 3 impacts of all of these exercises.
First, you need to focus on actually targeting your back rather than your biceps, triceps, or forearms.
It will take some time to develop the neuromuscular connection between your brain and your head, but for all of these exercises, you'll want to try to pull the weight with your elbows not your hands, and really squeeze in the opposite direction with each rep like if you were trying to put a pencil between your shoulder blades. Second, you'll need to load all of these exercises quickly over time.
The neat way to do this is by trying to gradually increase the weight that you use in all of your reverse exercises as you get stronger. And the third thing you want to do is full stretch and get a really good stretch on the passive part of all your pull-ups. Now, let's start with the first exercise, the long angle dumbbell row.
This is a variation on the regular dumbbell row, and although it is very effective, it is a shame that most people do not actually know that this exercise exists. To perform this exercise, start by leaning on a good lower than the position of your diaphragm.
You want to bend down until the opposite of you is almost parallel to the ground. Hit the dumbbells with your other hand in a neutral position and let them hang straight down. Pull your shoulder blades back and stick the casket out to maintain a neutral spine.
Now instead of pulling the dumbbells toward your belly button as you would with the regular row, I want you to aim to pull the dumbbells back toward your hips, as if you were trying to put the dumbbells into your chest, and also bring them back down to the hanging position and repeat the dip.
This will bring your biceps almost completely out of motion and put all the stress on your butt, back muscles, and shoulder opposite. Keep in mind that you will need to use a lighter weight as you would with regular dumbbell rows. I know you may have seen this exercise now before, but trust me give it a try, you'll feel the trajectory of your work backward you knew by now.
After that, a firm fist and a wide fist are pulled out. Both grips will provide unique benefits for your reversing. A wide grip will retain a lot more of your lower back muscles and will take a lot of your biceps strength from the movement. To get started, you'll need to hit a pull-up bar with your hands pointing down from you, and your fist somewhat wider than your shoulders so that your body looks like a "Y" shape. Next, drop straight down so that your arms are fully extended.
Keeping your casket out and your shoulders back, pull yourself up and focus on pulling in your elbows until your chin clears the bar. Try to think about keeping your elbows behind you all the way through, and squeeze the top before lowering yourself back to a fully extended position and repeating the exercises. With a close grip, everything stays the same except you'll want to bump the bar with your hands into a split shoulder set or actually close together.
As you get closer to the grip, you'll be fit to incorporate more biceps and fewer chest muscles into the exercise allowing you to do more repetitions or increase the weight. It will also help you beat the inner latex.
Take back your body weight once you start getting stronger, and if pull-ups are too sensitive for you now, you can also use resistance bands to help you on your way. We move on to a stationary pullover. Then you'll want to set a file.
