< strong>Recommended exercises for latissimus dorsi: Single-arm cable row
The latissimus dorsi is a large muscle that extends from the armpit to the waistline! Developed latissimus dorsi muscles are like a pair of wings!
We always recommend using one hand during latissimus dorsi training!
The benefits of one-handed training are many!
Improve muscle strength imbalance: Left and right muscle strength imbalance Balance is a common phenomenon!
Wider range of motion:More More motor unit recruitment
More stabilization is neededMuscle group: Prevent trunk rotation and twisting
Today I will introduce a classic movement for exercising the latissimus dorsi, oblique single-arm rowing!
It is different from ordinary horizontal rowing, because the change in the torso angle (leaning over) will shift all the emphasis to the latissimus dorsi!
How?
As shown in the picture: One-handed grip Hold the handle, lean over, bend your hips, stand back, and straighten your arms! Keep your torso nearly parallel to the ground! Viewed from the side, you will find that your latissimus dorsi is stretched to its longest length!
Start the action: Feel the tension of the latissimus dorsi, then contract the latissimus dorsi to pull the elbow back, pull the elbow to the side of the body and clamp it. Squeeze your lats and pause for a second! (Shorten the latissimus dorsi)
Then slowly lower the handle to feel the latissimus dorsi stretch a little bit! You need to be in control during playback, feel it all the time and don’t lose tension! You need to feel your lats fully lengthened to your waistline
