The Latissimus dorsi is one of the largest muscles of the back. It is responsible for extension, adduction,
transverse extension also known as horizontal abduction, flexion from an extended position, and
internal rotation of the shoulder joint
. It also has a synergistic
role in extension and lateral flexion of the lumbar spine.

Before you workout, it is important to remember that working out on an empty stomach is worse than working out on a full one. This is true for a few reasons: the first being that even with a completely full stomach, you should have vast amounts of energy to help fuel your lifting. The second is that while working out on an empty stomach, it is very possible you will let your hunger get the best of you and you will rush through each exercise, maybe even defeating the purpose of lifting. Now you know that it is important to eat something before you lift, but what, and when?
