Strength exercise
Narrow Grip Lat Pulldown
How to do it
- Sit at the pulldown station and lock the thighs under the pad, gripping a narrow attachment with hands close together.
- Keep the chest lifted and lean back only slightly as you set the starting position at full arm extension.
- Pull the handle down toward the chest by driving the elbows straight down past the ribs.
- Focus on drawing the shoulder blades down and together as the handle reaches the lower chest.
- Control the release back up to a full stretch rather than letting the weight stack snap upward.
- Keep a steady breathing pattern, exhaling on the pull and inhaling on the return.
