Looking wide as hell from the back! Is the one shoulder & lat being higher then the other a camera/posing issue or a structural one? Either way, doesn’y look too out of line and I am very impressed with that back. What do you attribute most of your lat width to? I’m assuming deadlifts for the general thickness?
I felt it was to high, which is why my waist was bent, unfortunately. I attribute the basics: Pullups, Rows, and Deads. I think Pullups really took my back to the next level, because for a while I was doing pulldowns, and when I decided not to be a pussy, my back exploded. I’m doing 18 inch deads/rack pulls from below the knee tmrw, btw. Probably will post a video. Going for 635 for 4.
Fair enough, I’m doing all the basics so sure it’s helping… I do pullups and pulldowns but pull-ups first in my sequencing which works well because I’m be maxing the lat pulldown soon enough anyway. Looking forward to seeing a vid of heavy ass rack pulls, always fun

Deadlifting:
18 Inch/Tire Deadlift: Worked up to 635x4. I felt I could have gotten 5 reps, but I hurt my upper back on that last rep. I think I pulled my middle traps. That just means I got 6 reps ready for next weak, than jump to 665 or 675.
Good Mornings: Worked up to 315x3.
Leg Extensions: Worked Up To the whole stack (280 I think), 2 45s, and 2 chains that are probably 10/15lb each. So 390-400#.
All in all, good day.
Wow. Very nice indeed, looked like it was a good 1-2 inches below the knee as well, very strong stuff man. The guy shouting ‘come on’ reminded me of Rockys trainer in the films, ha
