Bodybuilding champion Chris Bumstead faced a recurring problem – debilitating headaches that made his workouts a pain in the neck. In a video posted by him on his YouTube Channel, he shared how he’s planning to keep them in check: “I’m going to do some overhand some underhand really trying to focus on pulling low into my hip rather than high to engage my traps less, hit more lower lats.” He further explained why he thinks this is the solution.

Bumstead said, “I tend to over-activate my traps all the time probably why I get headaches all the time. But we’re just trying to get like the depth thickness in the lower back a little bit more, just density mid back, so rows great way to do it.”

Chris integrated into his workouts the conscious effort to squeeze and hold at the top in each rep. He stated, “I’m trying to first few reps squeeze and hold at the top and it really focused me on contracting the part of my back I want, helps me focus on contracting the part of my back that I want rather than just using like my hips, legs.”
