What up, everyone, and welcome back to the fitness stuff for normal people podcast. I'm Tony.

And I'm Mariana. And honestly, the fitness industry, we talk about it a lot. It kind of sucks.

Actually, it really sucks. And all we're trying to do is make it suck a little bit less. Instead of

following every new trend that's popping up every freaking day now, the goal of what we're doing

with this podcast is just to give you the tools and knowledge

so you have the confidence in applying the best possible training, nutrition, and supplementation

into your own life.

Where today, have you ever wanted to build lats so wide that you feel like you might actually

take off and fly when there's a gust of wind or build a back so thick that you actually start getting upset with the city planner for making door regulations so freaking small.

Why aren't they bigger? We can barely fit anymore.

Today we're going to break down the best and worst exercises for building the perfect back,

because whether you're training for an ideal physique or overall strength and functionality,

the back might be the most important muscle group you want to develop.

A strong back transfers directly into squats, deadlifts, and even bench press increasing strength.

And from a physique standpoint, who doesn't have the dream at least once per week

of hitting the back double bicep pose with Sam Sulek after a workout in the posing room?

One time is being modest.

Today, we'll give you everything you need from the differences between training for back thickness

versus width the most important aspects of back training in a program, the best and worst exercises,

and how to catch up a lagging back if it's a little bit behind on your overall physique.

But quick question, you're following us, right?
