Inverted row

Bodyweight under a bar. Scales by changing your foot position, so it works at any strength level and needs nothing.

This one is not programmed directly — it is what you do when the first choice is taken or does not suit you. See the splits it stands in for.

The muscle itself

The rhomboids and middle trapezius between the shoulder blades, seen from behind.
These pull the shoulder blades together, so the rep starts at your blades and not at your hands.

Everything else that trains this pattern

Training is the easy half

You will not build anything on the wrong number of calories, and most people are eating a long way under the protein they think they are. Get your daily number, then have the week built to it — every recipe on the site is costed from gram weights, so the figures are checkable rather than rounded up to sound better.
