💪 Learning Lab: Back Training Basics — Dumbbells, Bench & Bands

In this week’s Learning Lab, we broke down the fundamentals of training your back using just dumbbells, a bench, and a few resistance bands.

Most people love training what they can see in the mirror, but your back is just as important. It’s the second largest muscle group in the body and plays a huge role in posture, shoulder health, and overall strength.

When you train your back the right way, you’ll:

✅ Improve posture and reduce shoulder or lower-back pain

✅ Build muscle that supports faster metabolism

✅ Create balance between your front and back muscles

✅ Look stronger and more athletic from every angle

In this session, we covered:

The difference between horizontal pulls (rows) and vertical pulls (pulldowns)
How to keep your shoulders down and activate your lats properly
Why pulling with your elbows instead of your hands changes everything
How your elbow angle and grip width control what part of the back you hit
Foundational moves with dumbbells, bands, and the bench to train the entire back
