lat pulldowns
Cable bar pulls
Lat pulldowns are a weight training exercise targeting the latissimus dorsi—the broad muscles of the back.
Performed on a cable machine, you pull a bar down toward your chest while seated, engaging the lats to build back width and strength: I start my back workout with lat pulldowns.
The movement mimics a pull-up but allows adjustable resistance.
