lats

• Position yourself on your knees or standing in front of a high cable pulley with a V- or W-grip or rope attachment. • Lean forward into the weight and let your arms almost but not fully extend (less than 180° ROM: aim for 120-170°): keep the tension on your lats, not your connective tissue. • With straight or nearly straight arms, pull the bar/rope into your lap while leaning backwards. It’s a rhythmic motion. • In the bottom position, your elbows should be in line with your torso, effectively in anatomical position. • Use your body movement to get a good stretch in the top position (torso more horizontal) and a good peak contraction in the bottom position (torso more vertical). If you don't get a good stretch, lean over further forwards during the ascent. Kneeling down helps you get a good stretch too. If you don't get good peak contraction, lean more backwards during the descent, or step back a bit further from the cable tower. What do you think about this exercise?
