This first lats workout follows the classic functional hypertrophy scheme. It is very effective for strength gains. And is a favorite amongst athletes. The rationale is to recruit and stimulate the high threshold motor units first with a neurologically complex task and proceed to fatigue them further with higher reps on the second exercise.The routine articulates around straight sets and allows ample time to rest between sets. Since faster twitch fibers need more time to recuperate and the workout requires optimal levels of strength complete recovery is key.IFBB Pro Women's Physique Gillian Mounsey Ward demonstrating routine # 1 for the latissimus dorsi (aka lats)Routine 1: (low reps)A.
