Now take a quick 5 minutes of your day to give this video a listen. If you don't believe, then what's the point of all this ?

Workout of the Week

Hack For Big Back 

It is well known that having a well built and cut back is a great asset to your physique. we're going to give you guys a hot take but to us, the back is one of the best looking parts of a human body. To help you achieve your dream looking back, we're giving you a full back workout.

Disclaimer: This workout will focus on your lats and traps. To build a full back, it's important to grow your rear delts, but we already covered this muscle in a workout a couple weeks ago.

Warm-up

  • Cross your fingers and reach in front of you as far as you can until you feel a good warming stretch in your lats and general back. Do this for around 30 seconds to warm your back muscles properly.

Section one

  • 5-10 pull ups or assisted pull ups

  • 3 mins rest

Repeat 4 times

Section two

  • 10 reps of close grip lat pulldowns

  • 1 min rest

  • 8 reps of seated cable rows 

  • 2 mins rest

Repeat 3 times

Section three

  • 8 reps of barbell upright rows

  • 8 reps of T-Bar Land Mine Rows (lift heavy with this one)

  • 2 mins rest

  • 12 reps of dumbbell Shrugs

Repeat 3 times

Cooldown

  • Repeat the Warm-up for about 1 minute to be sure to stretch the muscles you just exercised. 

Now Let's get to Work!

Dumbbell Wrist Curl

The dumbbell wrist curls are a classic exercise to train your forearms. Stabilize the motion by resting your elbows on your lower quads and curl your wrists. It ain’t magic, it’s exactly like the picture so get to it! 

    Daily Self Growth Tip:

    Embrace Failure:

    Failure is a natural part of the learning process. Embrace it, learn from it, and use it as an opportunity to grow and improve. If you’re smart enough, you won’t make the same mistake twice. If you do not make the same mistake again, you’re already a mistake closer to your goal, a mistake closer to greatness. 

      Workout song of the day: Mercury: Retrograde by Ghostemane

      ‘’Ask me if I give a f*** about this, ay’’. These lyrics go hard. Stop caring about things that don’t matter, focus on your goal, focus on achieving what you started. Not only is this song an absolute banger with it’s beat, the lyrics are a great inspiration for your journey.
