The best exercises for the muscles of the back
As we already understood from anatomy, the back is not a single muscle, but a whole group consisting of different muscles. Some muscles are bigger, others are smaller. This is some complexity, because if we maximize the development of large muscles, they will “steal” the load of small ones, and this will not allow us to achieve maximum results.
I’ll tell you more about this, but a little later. And now I want to note which back muscles particularly affect our athletic appearance.
- The widest back muscles (“wings”).
- Trapezius muscle (“trapezium”).
- Extensors of the back.
- Battlements muscles.
Now it will be very easy for us to choose exercises for training the muscles of the back. We’r know which muscles are most important for us. So, let’s look at the best exercises for back development.
