Lat Pulldown (OP-PD)
Muscles Used: Latissimus Dorsi and Biceps
Setup: Check the weight stack to ensure appropriate resistance. Stand and grip the bar in the
desired position, then pull down and sit with thighs under the pads. Position upper body by
leaning slightly forward from the hips and pulling directly over the shoulders.
Movement: With a controlled motion, draw down the handles directly over the shoulders until hands
reach shoulder height. Extend the handles up until arms are fully extended. Return the
handles to the start position and repeat the motion while maintaining proper body
positioning.
TIP: While performing the exercise, keep the back straight and think about lowering your
elbows towards your lower back to reinforce the correct exercise position.
