How To Use……
To use the lat pulldown machine, sit on the seat with your knees under the padded bar. Select an appropriate resistance by inserting the pin into the weight stack. Grasp the bar with an overhand grip, starting with your elbows straight. Your hands should be wider than shoulder-width apart. Lean back slightly, but do not arch your back. Bend your elbows toward your waist as you pull the bar to your chest. When the bar touches your chest, straighten your elbows to return to the starting position.
Benefits…..
As the name implies, the lat pulldown machine works your lats, or the latissimus dorsi muscles of your back. These large, broad muscles — which help create the characteristic V-shaped back of a bodybuilder — are responsible for pulling your arms down and back, which is the action you use during the lat pulldown exercise. Lat pulldowns also work other muscles on your back, shoulders and arms.
