        This is pure cope. Your abs move your body up and down? Go ahead and load your bodyweight onto a barbell and try to curl it.

        This only proves the point that pull ups build your lats.

        That's wrong
        >https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21068680/
        >This study compared a conventional pull-up and chin-up with a rotational exercise using Perfect·Pullup™ twisting handles.
        >One-factor repeated measures analysis of variance examined the muscle activation patterns and kinematic differences between the 3 pull-up exercises. Average EMG muscle activation values (%MVIC) were as follows: latissimus dorsi (117-130%), biceps brachii (78-96%), infraspinatus (71-79%), lower trapezius (45-56%), pectoralis major (44-57%), erector spinae (39-41%), and external oblique (31-35%)

    Single-arm pulldowns. Go as heavy as you can. Range of motion doesn't need to be huge, just move your elbow from the front of your body to your hip.

    It’s not
    >but if you haven’t trained your physical self-awareness most exercises that “target” it are easily cheated and the work is shifted to your biceps.
    One of the most important things I did for back day was doing multiple lay exercises from different angles and doing them slowly and deliberately so I could tell if a rep was being pulled by my lats ir biceps. If I was consistently hitting biceps too hard I backed off the weight and focused on ONLY using my lats in reps.

    It isn't. It's super, super easy to build lats.
    Do lots of horizontal, unilateral cable rows from every angle and degree of stretch.

    Because meme exercises don't hit it.

    Do lat pull downs or pull ups, anything else is basically a waste of time.

    You lack the mind muscle connection. You go too heavy and don't learn how to use the muscle.

    I did pull ups everyday for a month. At around the fourth day I was feeling sore and just seeing a pump, which I never get in a session.
    By that time I had done 96 reps, meaning you need a lot of volume to build your back.
    Even now, training heavy and with good form I'm seeing suboptimal results.
    I think you need to increase the volume to something like 8x8 or 10x10 and see how it goes, that's what I'm doing anyway but havent been at it too long yet.

    just learn to engage your lats
    the lat pull over on cables is a good way to do it
    once you've learned this just keep that engagement on all pulling movements
    go heavy and go hard, do drop sets

    the nautilus pullover machine is the best way to build lats but obviously most commercial gyms don't have one. If yours does, you are missing out on gains if you don't use it.
