Circular Neutral-Grip Pulldown
This grip emphasizes the stretch and contraction in the lats. The movement allows for a deeper range of motion and activates the back from a slightly different angle.
Level:Intermediate
Type:Machine-based
Technique
How to perform
1
Attach neutral-grip handles (palms facing each other) to the machine. Sit down and lock your knees under the pad.
2
Maintain good posture with a slight lean back. Allow your arms and lats to get a full stretch at the top.
3
Forcefully pull the handles down towards your chest, keeping your elbows close to your body.
4
Squeeze your lats tightly at the bottom of the movement when the handles are at chest level.
5
Return the handles to the top in a controlled manner, feeling the stretch in your lats before the next rep.
