Used to crank the weights way too heavy, now I drop down 20 pounds and actually feel my back working

Man I did the same thing with deadlifts. Dropped from 275 to 225 and suddenly my lats actually remembered they exist. Who knew ego lifting was just really bad form in disguise.

275 to 225 is a big drop, did you notice your lower back hating you less after that or was it more of a lat engagement thing?

Leg drive is the real game changer, not just lats lol.
