The close grip lat pulldown builds width in your back and creates that V-shape look. It hits your lats hard while strengthening your biceps and middle back too.
1. Sit at the lat pulldown machine and grab the close grip handle with palms facing each other 2. Keep your chest up, shoulders back, and lean slightly backward 3. Pull the handle down to your upper chest by driving your elbows down and back 4. Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the bottom of the close grip lat pulldown 5. Slowly return the weight to the starting position with control
• Keep your chest proud and avoid rounding your shoulders forward during the close grip lat pulldown • Focus on pulling with your back muscles, not just your arms • Don't lean too far back - a slight lean is enough • Control the weight on the way up - don't let it slam back to the top
• Using too much weight and swinging your body to complete the close grip lat pulldown rep • Pulling the bar behind your neck instead of to your chest • Not squeezing your shoulder blades together during the close grip lat pulldown movement
