For some quality back development is the hardest to attain of all body parts. One possible reason for this is that visually your back is out of sight. Back is not like arms, chest, legs or shoulders which are visually easy to see and constructively critique. We may even go days without even so much as a glance at our back. No wonder for many it lags behind in development. Here are two proven techniques which will literally blow your back out of its quiescent state into new growth and quality development seemingly overnight.
Technique #1: Visualize – For those who find their back lagging behind properly assimilating visualization into their back training will work wonders for you.
Beginning the night before your workout mentally visualize yourself as you go through the back exercises your will perform. Step outside your body, become the witness and watch as you execute each one in perfect form. See and feel the muscles stretching and contracting as they go through each motion. Visualize the development you are seeking, envision your back as you wish it to be. It is important that this phase of #1 be done just before drifting off to sleep when your conscious and subconscious mind are most receptive. In effect you are mentally programming yourself for the perfect back workout.
Now it is time to train. Before executing each exercise close your eyes, step outside your body and visualize yourself as you physically begin the exercise. Do not stop this visualization until the exercise has been completed. It is important to see and feel each muscle of the back stretch and contract as it moves through the entire range of the motion. This may seem like a lot of work but it really isn’t and will not add any more time to your workout. It will take a little practice at first but in short order you can master this technique and be well on your way to reaping the awesome rewards.
Technique #2: Two Count Contraction – This technique by itself will bring great results but when combined with the above technique back development goes through the roof.
Slow all your back training exercises down so that they become smooth continuous movements, no ballistics here. Feel the stretch and hold the contractions for a good two count as you work through a full range of motion. Really squeeze your back muscles as hard as you can for 1001 ---- 1002. It is important to focus solely on back. Forget about your grip. Use wrist straps if you need to. Your hands and arms just become hooks as you do all the work with your back. Reduce the weight if necessary. Perfect form is essential.
Combine these two techniques over the next six weeks and watch the metamorphosis your back experiences.
Believe ---- Persist ---- Achieve
