Lat pulldown: I never know if I'm really getting my lats/back with this, since I feel it more in my biceps/upper arms. A wider grip may be needed?


Sit under the pulley, a neutral grip is fine, look up at the pulley, tilt your chest up by arching your back, pull down concentrating on pulling with your back, pull your shoulder blades together in the back, pull the grip down to your upper chest, pause and return to start position-- always controlled movements.

Hope that helps.
