We are a firm
believer in flexing, stretching and posing the muscles between each set.
This is especially true for the back muscles. You have to keep posing,
stretching and flexing your back muscles in order to gain full control over the
muscles needed to show it off effectively in bodybuilding competition.
Continually stretching the back muscles also helps achieve that long
sweep and low tie-in at the waistline that make the champions backs so
impressive.
Flex the back
muscles or hit poses like a back double biceps shot between sets of rows
and pullovers. If you pose while your training partner is doing this
set, you will keep the back muscles pumped and warm and ready to really
hit the next set.
When you are
training lats muscles with chins and pulldowns, between sets grab hold
of something solid and really stretch them out one at a time, or both at
once. Also, all the serratus exercises can be used to stretch the lats
muscles. This lengthens the lats muscles, helps you get a fuller range
of motion and a deeper contraction, and develops the lower area of the
lats muscles as they extend down to the waist.
