Alternating Grip Pullup for Wide Lats

http://www.scoobysworkshop.com
For wide, flaring lats the alternating grip pullup is great! In this variant of the pullup we put much more load on one lat than the other to shock it into growing stronger. This pullup is a stepping stone to a one handed pullup. To do this pullup, one palm is toward our face and the other faces away from our face. We center our body under the palm that is facing our face so as to overload this lat. We do as many reps as we can in this position then, without rest, swap grips and do it the other way. This is killer, dont expect to be able to do too many of these!

Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn't have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.

Nutrition is key to being able to add muscle! I cover nutrition on my website, if thats not detailed enough for you I have reviewed and recommended some excellent books:

why does ppl with great body has hollow cheeks and thin face ??? same problem with me from time i start going to gym i start loosing my face fats rapidly which i dont want ..any cure for it scooby ???

[scooby1961]

Sorry, you cant control where the fat comes off when you lose weight. If you want to have ripped abs, the fat comes off the face too making it thinner.

i wish i was strong right now =(

[scooby1961]

strong is a relative term. Workout today and you will be stronger next week. Repeat that workout all year long and you will be much stronger. Just take it one day at a time and make a little progress daily.

I'm 49 years old. I weigh 252lbs. My ideal weight is 210lbs. I am out of condition haven't exercised for many a year. I am medically OK to take up exercise without restriction. Can I achieve a body like yours or even close before I die!!!!!!!!!!

[scooby1961]

Hey 64ironman,

That is a very good question and the answer is maybe, maybe not. You will workout religiously for about 5 years to find out, either way, you win. Everyone can get in *better* shape, not everyone can look like Arnold. Just losing the fat to show off your 6-pack abs will make an amazing difference, you can definitely achieve that! The question is, how much muscle can you add. My guess is that by the time you get 6-pack abs you will feel like a teenager again anyway :)

This guy's awesome!

scooby keep it up! if we count the weight all of us added thanks to u...DAMN!!

[shakaama]

scooby i commend you on taking the time to respond so much on your channel.

[shakaama]

Actually i've been studying this particular subject. I have found that men / women put on and lose weight in the "last in, first out" pattern. Also men versus women put on fat in nearly and opposite pattern to each other. Men put on fat around the lower abs, then upper, then spreads to the extremeties. Women do it the opposite. So for a man to lose weight, his arms, legs, and face will be the first to lose visible fat.
