-Summary: - The pulldown shown at 4: 08 is a very effective way to train the lats. By doing a normal pulldown, you don-t have behind the body extension, which we need for maximal lat development. By doing the rocking pulldown, we get the vertical pulldown with abduction and adduction with the extension behind the body.
-Correct form: - 4: 12
-Difference between underhand and overhand grip pulldowns: - So the main difference is that underhand pulldowns don-t get the abduction and adduction with an overhand grip pulldown, which limits development.
-Common mistake: - people lean back to get the elbow behind the body, but this takes tension off the back muscles to work many other muscles especially the rear delts.
-Why this is important: - You need to train the lats in every function that they have.

1) that intro was hilarious
2) for some reason my left lat is smaller than my right one. I mean they-re both small because I just started working out again after not being able to for a couple months but I wanted to know if I could fix that and make them more even
0: 59 I see you have the same problem? Correct me if I-m wrong but from my point of view it also looks like your right lat is bigger than your left. Is it genetics? Is it diet? The way I (or I guess -we-) train maybe? What-s the problem and how can I fix it?

-Noob question: -
Lats aren't inside of the arms nor are they connected to the arms. The lats are engaged when the shoulders lower in what is basically a reverse shrug motion. Why don't we do a reverse shrug and forget the extended arm part of the motion? When doing full range my biceps get tired before my lats. Are we all doing full range simply because somebody did it this way 100 years ago and nobody thought to question it? Is this another -Captain's Chair- exercise? Our abs aren't in our legs nor are they connected.

I did this for the first time on my last workout. My armpits feel like they have a rash (because of the tearing I guess)? There is no rash, but that's what this soreness feels like. Is that normal? I want to continue doing it this way because the normal pulldown I felt was ineffective ( I never felt soreness or felt like I had a good workout )

I watch dozens of videos for health strength etc because i like to l; earn different ways BUT, think about how the great bodybuilders of the 40-s and 50-s like Steve Reeves and Reg Park etc grew their bodies without all of this knowledge, gym equipment and expensive supplements. Milk and raw eggs and hard work. SIMPLES

I actually tried the rocking variation for the first time and I never felt a stronger contraction on my lats. I've been training my lats for a few weeks before and even doing the rocking pulldown light I felt a little sore the next morning which I haven't felt after the first week of lat training.

1: 10 actually try extending completely up to stretch and tear the fascia then bring it down similarly without rocking and try your hardest to touch your chest with it. BENDING back isn-t bad at all. The one arm bull is a good accessory to the lat pulldown.

1: 14 i was like: dude, cut! The boomstick is showing in the shot. And then, waaaaaaait a minute Jeff is shirtless and is wrapped by the neck with a wire mic. And then a third time, NOOOOO that's the lat pulldown handles ---
Now time to pay attention! --

This is the problem, how much time are you going to spend on the various ways to do this exercise? If you want to live at the gym, go ahead, but I got other things to do. I say, do the basic way, with good form, and add weight as you get stronger.
