“Doing isolated lat pull-downs can actually make your body more dysfunctional. Imagine a company with 100 employees who never talk to one another and have no idea what the company’s overall goals are or what any of the employees in other departments do. Now, imagine that’s what’s happening inside your body. Your lats may be strong individually, but they don’t know how to communicate with the other muscles in your body. That means when you try to climb that tree or rock, your lats and lower body won’t know how to coordinate to make you move faster and more efficiently.”
