The lat pulldown machine exercise builds a wider back and stronger lats. It creates that V-shape you see on strong people while improving your pulling power.
1. Sit on the lat pulldown machine bench with your thighs secured under the pads 2. Grab the wide bar with an overhand grip, hands wider than shoulder-width apart 3. Pull the bar down to your upper chest while squeezing your shoulder blades together on the lat pulldown machine 4. Hold for one second at the bottom, feeling the stretch in your lats 5. Slowly return the bar to the starting position with control
• Keep your chest up and lean back slightly during the lat pulldown machine movement • Pull with your lats, not just your arms - think about pulling your elbows down • Don't pull the bar behind your neck on the lat pulldown machine - stay in front • Control the weight up slowly, don't let it slam back to the top
• Using too much weight and swinging your body to complete the lat pulldown machine rep • Pulling the bar too low past your chest or behind your neck • Letting the weight control you on the way up instead of controlling the lat pulldown machine movement
