Doing front pull downs but sitting sideways

Been seeing tons of people doing this, is it some sort of social media trend or does it hit something I’m not seeing?

Machine in question

That range of motion gets you better ready for homo sexors.

Idk. I see lots doing these bridge humps with a heavy weight on their waist. Seems good for strength. I've never tried and want the hip/lower back strength

yeah all that latt chit is popularised by someone called Kassem Hanson, a fat coach who owns N1 training, he's got a lot of fanboys

he basically thinks you need to "align the fibers" when you train, an idea made out of his own bunghole, and 'innovated' training the 'illiac latt". He's all over instagram

Yeah they all love to ignore anatomy(origin & insertion of the muscle) for some reason.



I never heard about the Kassem lat thing but good to see Dr. Mike already dismantling him


Dude has learned some terminology of exercise science & physiology and is making up facts & figures why his exercises are the best in the world and you should buy all his training programs online (+ merch). Just lol.

The whole idea that the lift need to 'align with the direction of the fiber" is just made up. So a pushup isn't "optima" because the "fibers" look a certain way is just BS
