How to Use Lat Spread Tape™ (Step-by-Step Guide)
Whether you're a seasoned competitor or just starting out in bodybuilding, perfecting your front and rear lat spread poses is crucial. Lat Spread Tape™—a first-of-its-kind posing tool by Titan Recovery™—was designed to improve grip, control, and symmetry in these signature poses. Here’s exactly how to use it to get the most out of your practice and stage performance.
What Is Lat Spread Tape™?
Lat Spread Tape™ is a specialized strip of breathable cotton fabric with hypoallergenic adhesive that wraps around your thumbs. It increases grip on your hips, providing tactile feedback and better resistance during the execution of both the front and rear lat spread pose. Unlike kinesiology or posture tape, this tool is built for posing performance—not injury recovery.
Who Is It For?
- Beginner bodybuilders learning pose mechanics
- Competitors preparing for stage season
- Physique and classic competitors refining their symmetry
- Coaches working with clients on muscle memory and precision
How to Apply Lat Spread Tape™
- Start with clean, dry hands. Your thumbs should be free from lotion, sweat, or oils.
- Peel one strip from the pack. Each unit includes five full sets (10 strips) for multiple sessions.
- Wrap the tape around each thumb. The tape should cover the upper pad and wrap tightly enough to stay in place during movement—but not so tight that it restricts blood flow.
- Place your hands on your hips. You’ll feel increased friction where your thumbs meet your skin. This added grip helps with stable hand positioning during the lat spread pose.
Training With Lat Spread Tape™
Lat Spread Tape™ can be used during all phases of training:
- Practice Sessions: Build muscle memory and learn where your hands should lock in during each pose.
- Peak Week Posing: Reinforce clean positioning and confidence as you prepare for stage.
- Show Day Prep: Use a fresh pair to warm up and sharpen your presentation backstage.
Why It Works
Lat Spread Tape™ improves pose execution by increasing grip and tactile feedback, helping you:
- Keep thumbs in consistent placement every time
- Enhance lat engagement for better flare and fullness
- Improve symmetry between your right and left sides
- Gain confidence and visual feedback with each rep
