Lat Pull Down

Adjust the seat to its lowest position. Attach the lat bar to the high pulley. Sit facing the machine and lock your knees under the knee hold-down pads. Grab the lat bar with a wide, overhand grip. Keep your upper body stationary and pull straight down to your upper chest. Return slowly.

Variations: Use an underhand grip. Use a narrow grip. You can perform this exercise one arm at a time using a single handle in place of the straight bar.

Primary muscles worked: Latissimus Dorsi (mid back), Rhomboideus

(upper back), Trapezius (upper back), Biceps (front of arm).
