Try this exercise. I don't know the name, High Cable Squated Rope Pulls !!
Set a cable pulley to the top & attach the rope attachment. Grab the rope just you normally would and back up about 5 feet. Now squat really far and keep your head down. Pull the rope into your body. ![]() I like to do a set of wide grip pullups, then drop down and do these to failure. Typically I just use the whole stack as you tend to be able to lift a LOT on this exercise! You should definitely feel it in your lats though!

THUMBS UP! I love em! Sometimes, if I want to change things up, I'll choose a lighter weight and superset them with light dead lifts.

Another GREAT lat exercise are so called Gironda sternum chins. It's basically a standard pull up but you slightly lean back allowing yourself to pull up as high as you possibly can (touching the sternum).
Check the video: grip can be varied. http://www.bodybuilding.com/exercise...-sternum-chins

The deadlift is extremely taxing on the CNS, yes. The squat is not very taxing at all on the CNS, you can do it heavy every single day.

![]() My lats were built primarily from heavy reverse grip bent over barbell rows which hit the lower lat, and a ton of weighted pullups. I hardly use the pulldown anymore unless we are working on negative reps. Wide/Neutral/Reverse Grip. Just failure everytime.... |

deadlifts are one of the key compound pulls that stimulate the CNS and releases the most GH. therefore, its essentialiif ya wanna put on any mass . for lats, the actions are abduction and extension of the humerus. so it does matter HOW you do ur pull ups. though i would like to know,wad is the ave volume of ya workout? in terms of sets and reps. i am not sure abt how much volume should be incorporated.it would be great to know.cheers. nice lats. ![]() |
