Well, this is about as close as you will see me get to a "humpday" post. 😊. . A more blatant or explicit pic could result in my kids one day asking, "Dad, why are you bent over with your butt in the camera?" 😳🤣. Keeping it tasteful. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #ketoinglife #ketofam #fitnessphotography #fitnessphoto #fitover40dad #ketomuscle #aestheticgains #aestheticphysique #fitnessmodel #ketogainz #ketogains #backdevelopment #backgains #muscleart #fit_over_40 #ageisjustanumber . 📸 @luistakespix https://www.instagram.com/p/CIk7MXsA16f/?igshid=1n2ovf8861013

opening the weekend by training the lower trapezius muscles with these Y-raises, as I like to call them....torched my mid back...great way to warmup/activate the upper back for a pulling session.... . . . . . #yraises #trapeziusmuscle #lowertrapezius #scapularretraction #scapulardownwardrotation #backtraining #backdevelopment #physiquedevelopment #backbuilding #pullday #thoracicextension #fridayfocus #fridayflex #gainsarethegoal #ascenttoaesthetics https://www.instagram.com/p/B8kJsacDIC2/?igshid=125n4cdr2quaf

Back training tips. 👍. . With so many muscle groups in the back, hitting it from multiple angles is important for overall development. At a minimum, do a horizontal pull and a vertical pull each time you work your back, like seen in the 1st and 3rd example. I also usually add in a 3rd movement that pulls upward to hit the upper and mid traps (2nd video). . Horizontal Row - good for all back muscles to some degree, but especially good for mid traps. Examples: dumbbell rows, seated cable rows, pendlay rows. . Vertical Row - great for lats and lower traps. Examples: lat pull downs, pull ups, (normal and wide grip for both). . Upward Rows - great for upper and mid traps. Examples: bent over barbell rows, bent over dumbbell rows, shrugs. . ⭐TIPS⭐ ⭐ No half-repping. Use full range of motion while under load. See videos as an example. Full extension and full contraction. If that means you have to lower the weight, so be it. If your shoulders remain in the same place, you likely need to increase your range of motion. ⭐ Pull with your elbows, not your arms. I know it sounds odd. 🙂 Imagine your forearms and hands are just big meathooks being pulled from your elbows. The goal is to put your back to work, not your biceps. ⭐ Squeeze your traps at the peak of each contraction by bringing your shoulder blades together. ⭐ Upper traps respond better to very heavy weight. My favorites for this are barbell rows and smith rack shrugs. ⭐ Do Iso-lateral and uni-lateral movements. If you use both arms, all the time, you may not realize one side is weaker than the other. Plus, these types of movements usually allow for an even greater range of motion since there isn't a barbell to get in the way. ⭐ Periodically (every 3 - 6 months or so) use different grips. Overhand (pronated), underhand (supinated) and neutral. Regular and wide grip. . I hope these help you! Have any questions? Have any tips of your own that you would like to share? Leave them in the comments. 👇😁 . . . . . #ketoinglife #ketogains #backtraining #backgains #backdevelopment #trainingtips #fullrangeofmotion #rows #hypertrophytraining #physiquetraining #trapezius #latissimus #aestheticgains https://www.instagram.com/p/BzjZ8y3gurZ/?igshid=1now666fwfcrh

band pull aparts....a great warmup exercise to establish a stronger mind to muscle connection in the back, especially in the lower trapezius muscle....this is essentially a band pull apart with a couple of subtle modifications: a suppinated grip to create external rotation of the shoulder, which is a better position to strengthen and activate the rotator cuffs, keeping them healthier. I begin the movement above the head and bring my arms down as I put the band apart....bringing the arms down trains scapular downward rotation, while pulling apart trains scapular retraction. reversing the motion in a controlled manner results in scapular protraction and upward rotation being involved in bringing the arms back up while pulling the hands back together....while the loading in this exercise is of course insufficient to overload the muscles and result in hypertrophy, the activation strengthens the mental connection to the muscle in the training session that follows, allowing you to contract the muscles harder, increasing tension on them which may then result in hypertrophy, the improved mental connection may also help improve your technique in your lifting, which will result in better activation of the muscles, improving your potential to make gains, with sufficiently challenging loads, or sufficient time under tension. . . . . . . . . . . #shouldermobility #scapularretraction #scapularprotraction #shoulderexternalrotation #rotatorcuffs #infraspinatus #supraspinatus #subscapularis #teresminor #lowertrapezius #trapeziusmuscle #mobility #mobilitytraining #mindmuscleconnection #backdevelopment #pushpullgrind #pullday #pullsession #bandpullaparts #glutebands #scapularupwardrotation #scapulardownwardrotation #prehabilitation #rehabilitation #shoulderrehabilitation #aesthetics #ascendtoaesthetics #ascenttoaesthetics #resistancebandstraining #resistancebandsworkout https://www.instagram.com/p/BwiCE_0jg20/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15z67uvpoc4s8
