The exercise with the rope pretty much looks like straight arm lat pulls, with a rope rather than a bar.

Lol, yeah thanks Idk why I was drawing a blank on it earlier.

im an advocate of going through range of motion completely. If you can't fully extend your arms then you might want to drop the weight. IMO. Up to you though (pull ups, tbar rows, lat pull downs)

Angle was weird but i prefer strict cable rows.

Video wasn't bad. just my 2 cents.

Thanks man, I appreciate the critique.

no prob, plus you should do an exercise that will hit mid back more. You do a lot of lat work, but your rhomboids and mid traps are not getting smashed. Or atleast from your picture. (nice back)

Anything you can recommend to target those areas? I currently don't deadlift and am looking to add that exercise into my routine.

[Dsewell13]

lol deadlifting is what you are missing. Personally i do it on legs day. Gives me 2 back days in a way. Also if you have the mind-muscle connection correct, then id do single arm dumbbell rows. Also I do pull ups and weighted pull ups instead of chin ups and weighted chin ups

I agree, always try and use a full range of motion over a heavier weight. Drop the weight if you can't do the reps properly.

Also think about the negative part of the rep, try and keep it the same controlled speed as the rest of the rep. Control the weight throughout the whole rep.

[Arelious]

You need to do a little less weight on your excercises, your doing half of the motion and kind of jerking it every times it should be a controlled motion, squeeze at the end and when you return the weight to the rest position, you should do so controlled, that motion is just as important as the contraction. Another thing, your forms sht, you need to think about what body part your excercising and execute it focusing on that muscle as much as possible with little othe assistance, your mind needs to be just as involved as your muscles. When you were doing your seated rows, your leaning back at like a 45 degree angle, that's lower back assistance an your knees were to bent, believe it or not, that sleight Bend gives cushion and allows the weight momentum to generate through your legs, esspecially when your doing reps where you jerk it back like you do. It's not a bad routine, but you'll see greater gains with better focused controlle reps.

Repp'd just for your signature, two of the greatest quotes from two of the greatest movies.

Do you know what Ed Geene said went through his k"mind when he thought of a woman?

Ed Geene?.... Broker over at Goldmansachs?

No, serial killer, Wisconsin.... He said part of him thought about being nice to her and taking her out on a date. You know what he said the other part thought of ?
