As I develop my back I am shooting for muscularity & definition, particularly in the middle & upper back area (between traps & scapula) but without the real big lat spread that you typically see in a hyperdeveloped bodybuilder-type physique (not that there's anything wrong with that
but it's not what I personally am after!
For the back, would I want to avoid the vertical pull movements (chins, lat pulldowns, etc.) in this case, and just stick with horizontal pulls (row variations)? If so, how important is grip width & hand position - the farther the hands apart, the more it hits the lat area?
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
