Baki yro and even Garo have massive monstrous demon backs that take their physique to a whole new level of Aesthetics and I've actually developed a pretty aesthetic demon back on myself because back is my favorite muscle to train now I've been training calisthenics for more than 6 years now and I have done many many many exercises for the back but since I can't cover them all in a single video I'm going to show you guys my personal favorites that help me to develop my back very quickly and if you're a beginner don't worry because all
of these exercises come with easier variations so you can develop an aesthetic demon back no matter how strong you are and as a bonus I'll also throw in my secret Training Method that helped me to develop my back super quickly so let's talk about the back what makes it so aesthetic well obviously first off when you see your favorite shown in anime character like Baki goo or toi they all have wide shoulders and a narrow waist AKA The Incredible the taper Thomas put some sparkles Vaper and a big proponent of that Vaper comes from having
a wide back because it creates that gradual line from your shoulders down to your waist giving you that Dorito look plus if you have a naturally larger waist like myself cry a large back can create the illusion of a narrow waist by offsetting your proportions so it's crucial to develop back width if you want to develop anime level Aesthetics like imagine if baky had no back then he would just be e also every single anime character with a good back is standing tall and proud giving them more confidence and a little bit more Aura and
that's because their back muscles are supporting their spine and keeping them upright giving them very confident posture I bet you just adjusted your posture just now don't lie you did I see you I always see you and developing a strong back is going to offset the grueling years of hunching over a computer one tricking Yasuo and of course having a nice back is it just looks amazing like you can see this on baky and yuo and especially goo who has a little bit more realistic genetics having these massive symmetrical areas of muscle that you can
see poking through the shirt it just looks so cool to have and it's honestly super aesthetic like there's something so badass about seeing these muscles Contracting when these characters wind up for a punch don't you want that to be you yeah you do now there's a lot of muscles on the back as you can see here but don't worry too much about the details Because by the end of this video you're going to learn how you can Target every single muscle in your back to build your own aesthetic demon back as mentioned before one of
the key aspects of Aesthetics is that Vaper and Garo is a perfect example of this he has incredibly wide shoulders and an itty bitty little waist but of course a lot of that is coming from the back width which of course means having welldeveloped lats and the best way to increase back width is going to be pull-ups now this may seem simple but pull-ups can be very easy to get wrong and I am quite the stickler for pull-up form so if I catch any of you doing pull-ups without perfect form every single time first of
all and this is most important full range of motion you don't want to be doing any of these or any of these just just these please second and this is a big one for me because I see it all the time in the gym no Kipping I mean as you can see from this clip I'm I don't know how to do Kipping pull-ups I've been doing pull-ups for so long that I'm just I can't get used to Kipping and I don't understand why anybody would do that because you're not training the pull-up you're training the
Kipping pull-up and that's what crossfitters do and you are not a crossfitter are you and lastly don't cross your feet because it looks ugly I'm not picky you're picky and pull-ups are perfect because they target the aformentioned lats and as great as they are one of the best exercises I think ever I found that my back started to really grow when I threw in some different pull-up variations which allowed me to progressively overload my lats variations like the wide pull-up which automatically put more load on your back chin-ups if you want to do a little
bit more bicep work and Commando pull-ups which give your lats a much deeper stretch explosive pull-ups Archer pull-ups and even typewriter pull-ups are great for developing that power and strength which can all help you achieve the elusive one arm pull-up top of food chain exercise if I do say so myself but if there's any progression that you should definitely try to vary up your pull-ups is the elid pull-up it's really a true test to see if you had good pull-up strength because most of the momentum that you could get from your legs is completely gone
when your core is engaged in an elit you want to know for sure that all of your pulling power is coming from your back which is why these are great but maybe you're still unsure of what progression you want to pick so here's a simple trick just add weight whether that's 5 lb or 45 lb lb or 135 lb not to brag it's an easy and simple way to progressively overload to not only build size but to also build strength now if you're not strong enough for pull-ups let alone weighted pull-ups you can still make
some really impressive back games and you can start with easier variations like the inverted row because it's going to Target similar muscles as it does to a pull-up your lats your upper back your biceps Etc and once you start getting good at inverted rows you can start to move on to harder progressions like pull up holds pull up negatives and eventually get to the pull-up but I think inverted row should be done regardless of your strength level because they develop another aesthetic part of the back which you can clearly see on Baki not only does
Baki have a wide back like G but he has a very thick turtle shell back as well and you can see this in the anime but it's a lot more prominent in his iconic side profile like it's actually insane how developed his upper back is it's thicker than lizo thicker than a bowl of oatmeal thicker than nikocado avocado 2 years ago now Rose and other horizontal pulling movements do Target your lats which is why there's such a great progression for pull-ups but they put more emphasis on your upper back which helps to develop your back
thickness targeting your rhomboids your traps and all of the other great muscles up there and progressing on the inverted row isn't that complicated you can adjust the angle you can make it supinated if you want to Target your biceps and you can use one hand which is great for developing even more pulling strength and ultimately you want to progress enough where you don't need any feet support and you're doing front lever rows which actually transitions perfectly to the next set of exercises I think these exercises should be done by everybody not just calx athletes because
they're so freaking good and adding these to my routine made a huge difference in my back gains because these exercises work your entire back and of course that's going to be lever training and one of the first ways that I Incorporated lever training into my training is by doing the tuck front lever not only are you activating your whole upper back to keep your spine supported but in order to stay in that position you're forced to engage your lats pressing your hands down towards your waist as you lean back as hard as you can and
as you start to get stronger you can incorporate Dynamic movements like front lever raises and taking your lats through range of motion plus the varying degree of contractions your upper back goes through equals massive back gains which is why I still do them to this day but if you find lever raises or the tucked front lever to be way too difficult for you you can always do tucked front lever negatives which are also going to be really good as well and they'll train the exact same muscles honestly any form of front lever training can work
to develop aesthetic backs just take a look at the strongest Street lifters all of the front lever Specialists have super developed lats super developed upper back and they have an aesthetic look to them because of their front lever training and of course all of the other back training they do like pull-ups and weighted pull-ups and stuff but you get the idea and if you want to achieve that level as quickly as possible let me introduce you to my secret Training Method that I use to develop my back super quickly and this is the embodiment of
go beond plus Ultra was kind of inspired by that I call it the rep promise and how do you do the rep promise let's say you want to work on your pull-ups take your max Reps for pull-ups let's say it's 10 and add 20% to 30% more reps onto that let's say 12 and this is important you want to promise yourself that you're going to finish those reps every single set each time and if that means you reach your max which is 10 take a little break 10 seconds or so get back on the bar
and continue to rep out until you reach your rep promise even if it means you're just doing one rep at a time now one of two things will happen either one you're going to find out very quickly that your max reps is higher than you thought and you weren't training as hard as you could have or two you know for certain that you train to failure and Beyond you went beyond plus Ultra and I have used this Training Method a lot not just with pulling but with pushing and legs as well in order to develop
an aesthetic physique like besides the massive back bump my entire back would always feel like exhausted so I know for sure that I work every single muscle fiber in my back to its fullest and then I'm just like I'm just dead like I'm dead do I recommend you do this every workout no because it can be very fatiguing but incorporating it once or twice a week is really going to help you to develop an aesthetic demon back similar to baky but baky is more than just his back he's also his e and e for enormous
of course so if you want to learn how you can develop the rest of baki's physique then you can check out my video on it right here
