Teres major muscle training method

Each of us has countless muscles in our body. Even those who are very fat and look like they have a lot of fat on their bodies, in principle they have the same muscles on their bodies, but they just don't exercise so they can't show it. Among the many muscles, some are familiar to us, such as the thigh muscles, biceps, etc.; there are also some that we are not familiar with, such as the teres major. But in fact, the teres major muscle is very important for the fitness of our body. So, how do you exercise the teres major muscle if you want to have it? Let us learn about the exercise methods of the teres major muscle.

The specific method of exercising the teres major muscle is as follows:

1. Reduce weight

Are you blindly increasing weight during training in the hope of gaining bulk? If you can't feel the contraction or congestion of your latissimus dorsi and trapezius muscles, you should reduce the weight, increase the number of times, and feel it carefully until you feel a burning sensation in your muscles.

2. Increase Intensity

It's interesting to note that many people train their back muscles much less intensely than their chest muscles. The muscles in the back are much larger than those in the chest. Therefore, the intensity of back training must be greater than that of chest training. You need to train your back with more exercises and sets.

3. Individual training

Training the back on the same day as other muscles will affect the effectiveness of the back training, regardless of whether the back is trained first or later. If you do a biceps workout after a back workout, you'll save some energy from the back workout for the biceps workout that follows. This will result in inadequate back training and affect its training effect.

4. Use more free weights

The development of technology today has led to a lot of progress in training equipment. However, you cannot trust science when it comes to bodybuilding equipment. If you can do pull-ups, don't do pull-downs; if you can do barbell/dumbbell rowing, don't do seated rowing; unless you are old and weak, or have been injured.

5. Stand facing the trainer with your feet as wide as the inside of your shoulders. Hold your hands over your shoulders, arms straight, back straight and still. You can lean your upper body forward slightly and tighten your abdomen. This is an exercise for the teres major muscle.

6. Inhale, hold the bar with both hands, extend or slightly bend your elbows (not too much), and pull the bar down until it touches the front of your thighs.

Tips: Finally, control the strength to allow the bar to return to the starting position at a constant speed, keeping your arms in the same position.

Through the introduction in the above article, I hope that all those who want to have beautiful teres major muscles can do the above movements frequently in the future. As long as we persist and don’t give up halfway, I believe that it won’t take too long before perfect teres major muscles will appear on our backs. Then we won’t have to envy bodybuilders anymore, and we can often turn around and admire ourselves in the mirror.
