You should be happy. Finding a huge weakness is great- the weaker you are in some area, the more it is holding you back and also the faster you can improve (by addressing that weakness). Every time you find a big hole, it basically means you have found a way to get good gains really quickly.

Now you just need to spend a little time getting serious increasing the strength of your upper-back dominant pulling for a while- maybe set some reasonably ambitious goal for your bent-over row, progress your chins, maybe a bit more work on other rowing motions. If you really are weak there, the pay-off will be huge.

 

[squatsquatsquat]

Wow. This log is awesome.

Also I hope that improving your upper back strength helps you out like Juanty said!

 

[belph]

Wow. This log is awesome.

Seconded.

IIRC, just holding a heavy ass weight in the FS position can help.

 

[calvus]

CRZA -

Any chance we can get a squat vid from you for the team comp?

Thanks!

*Awesome pics, btw

 

[toonie]

Hmm, I missed your over BW press. Great job man! That's a long time goal of mine and I hope to hit it in 2012.
