Back Training
Hi all
I was reading the Arnie Encyclopidia the other day and i was looking up exercises for the back. In the book Arnie says for middle back thickness do rows with a wide grip, for outer back development do close grip rows.
Today i was reading Flex magazine and one of the bodybuilders says the opposite, what do you all think about this?IF YOU CAN'T LIFT HEAVY, GO HOME!!

Inner and outer back don't mean much. You'll never get a thick, but not wide back. Your back just grows. You might be able to put a little emphasis on some area, but other than that it doesn't mean crap.
So just do rows and switch up the grip.

I myself lack in back width and i have found that doing close grip pulldowns or chins has given me more width rather than doing wide grip.

The solution? Do both!
No Milk, no.
Milk is for babies. When you grow up, you have to drink beer.

Just vary the grips you use. I like to do so.
Going wider should involve more posterior delt and scapular retractor action, as the scapula can more fully adduct and extension happens on the transverse plane. Using a closer grip you will be extending the should on the sagittal plane.The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
