    Lower Lat Help

    I'm really satisfied with the top of my lats at this point however my lower lats are slacking!! Here's my current back workout. Please give me some suggestions so I can fly.

    Wide grip pullups rep till i hit 30
    Bent over row 12,12,10,8
    Close grip pull down 12,10,8,8
    Cable row 10,8,8,6
    Stiff deads 10,10,8,8,6

    On pull ups I go all the way down slowly, pull up, pause and squeeze then repeat.

    Bent over row I do two sets underhand and two over.

    Close grip all the way up slowly, pull down, pause and squeeze then repeat.

    I really try to focus on form and feeling the muscles on all my exercises.. I'm just not hitting my my lower lats..

    t-bar rows old school style. one arm, two arm, it really doesn't matter they will put mass on those wings.

    A few of the hammer strength back machines seem to give me a really nice burn throughout all of my lats upper and lower.

    Anything you row with a close grip and to the lower part of your abdomen (groin area). Underhand grip where you are pulling almost up as well as into your lower abs. There is a great Hammerstrength machine for this with a close grip and you set the seat high so you are pulling up and in.

    seated cable rows, you got to bring it in to your bellybutton , alot of guys bring it to right under their chest working to much of the upper lats

    IMO you should be doing more lat pulldowns, with wide grip, and do it real slow. make this a big part of your routine, and just stay in the 10-12 range but try and up your weight. and remember to let the weight up very slowly, the more time you take with eccentric contraction the more hypertrophy you will get.
