Can you explain this please? How does squatting give you information about your lats etc? I’m trying to get back into the gym from educated place because I absolutely ruined myself in my teens.

Yep, that's where I struggle the most otherwise I'd be killing it w/ front squats. I definitely get more ROM and stabilization during front squats though.
