You know that’s another training crisis you’ve highlighted right there brother. People tend to focus a lot on their show muscles, or the ones they can see. Namely biceps and chest. Nothing wrong with that, but you shouldn’t neglect other muscles, that’s how imbalances happen, which can lead on to unnecessary and totally avoidable injuries.

I look at the body as a complete unit. Everything has to work in harmony with each other. The back is sometimes neglected or doesn’t receive the focus it deserves and should because people can’t see themselves when they’re training it.

Plus a well developed back looks phenomenal, it even makes your front appear more impressive. If you’re striving to create balanced musculature, you have to work your body as a whole and not ignore muscles just because you don’t like training them.

The back’s also the second largest muscle group in the whole body, second only to the legs. So it makes sense to give them attention.

Great points brother, Get well soon, so you can tear it up again in the gym.

Anyway another great article from you brother I really like it more information on my favorite body parts!

Glad to hear you like it. Yep, simplicity is definitely important when it comes to exercise selection. I usually do 2 moves per muscle nowadays. It works really well for me and the focus and effort I can put in is higher than if I was doing 4 or 5.

In fact when you do too many exercises for a particular muscle group, you dilute the effort that you’re putting in. Great article, awesome back.

Exactly right. Seems you already grasp the simplicity principle and axis training. No sense in wasting time and more importantly effort on a massive bunch of exercises. Pick a few solid ones and work on getting the max benefit out of them.

Save your sweat for the ones that count and give you the biggest bang for your buck. It’s not just about training hard, it’s about training smart.

Great!!!!!!
