Let's Talk Lat Spread​


Who's got the biggest barn door on this block? How'd you build it? Post a pic if you're gonna brag!!!!

For my back (as a powerlifter) I mainly do deadlifts, barbell rows, wide grip chins, straight arm push downs. Never more than 10 reps on the compounds and usually more like 7.

This pic is today - no pump. Weighing 238 at 5'11"

Download a camera app that has a timer on it. Prop up the phone and pose. I'm a powerlifter and I know how to pose better? C'mon son!

I was hoping you'd post. Lat spread is just what its called, but the part I love about powerlifting is the slight differences in back development. You have kick ass spinal erectors and thick traps.

Thanks POB! Yeah i agree powerlifting builds a massive thickness. When i turn to my side my spinal erectors come out further than the rest. No matter what anyone says deads and bo rows build a good back.

x2 for this thread! Will upload a back pic, try to work the timer for a posed lat spread.

More on the favorite lat exercises!! I for one love pull-overs for lats. Wide-grip chins are g2g also.

I'm doing twice as much weight now than I was in that pic, and I'm doing it with good form.
Strict seated rows 225x8, 210x10, and 200x12
Bent rows 225 for 3 sets of 12
Wide pull-downs 180x8, 170x10, and 160x12
Same for close grip.
pull-ups 3 sets of 12
