The Benefits of Lat Pulldowns
Lat pulldowns are one of the best ways to get a strong back. Not only are they an effective workout, they’re a great way to get a toned back. They’re an exercise that’s proven to improve flexibility. Plus, they’re a great exercise to start with if you’re brand new to lifting weights. Here’s how to do them. Step 1 Start with a lat pulldown machine. Choose a weight that’s comfortable for you. The lat pulldowns will work your upper back, chest, shoulders and triceps. They’re a great way to work the posterior chain, which includes your back, shoulder and chest muscles. Step 2 Sit down in the machine and grab a weight plate. The plate should be heavy enough to challenge you, but not so heavy that it’s too challenging to move the weight plate. Step 3 Pull the weight plate down, then raise it back up. Don’t pull with too much force, and make sure to keep your lower back straight. Step 4 Complete the set. Alternate between a barbell lat pulldown and a dumbbell lat pulldown. Step 5 Perform the lat pulldowns for two to three sets of 12 to 15 repetitions. You should be able to complete about four sets per workout. Step 6 Stretch. Lengthen your back, lift your chest and bring your arms above your head.
The Different Kinds of Lat Pulldowns
The lat pulldown is one of the more popular exercises for the upper back, and one of the most important exercises for upper back health. The exercise comes from traditional lifting exercises, but the lat pulldown is done from a seated position. This exercise strengthens the muscles around your lower back, improving your mobility, and making your spine stronger. As a general rule, the more weight that you are lifting, the more important it is to perform a lat pulldown. The lat pulldown can be performed using either your own bodyweight, or weights.

How to do Lat Pulldowns
Lat pulldowns are great to do for biceps and triceps. This is because they increase the force being applied to your arms and help your muscles become more defined. You can do lat pulldowns using a barbell or dumbbell. However, some people find using a barbell to be a little easier. Here’s how to do lat pulldowns: 1) Start standing tall, with your feet shoulder width apart and with your arms behind you. 2) Grab a barbell and hold it by your sides with your elbows bent and directly under your shoulder blades. 3) Next, raise your arms up and pull your arms towards your shoulders. You should feel tension in your triceps. 4) Once your arms are extended out in front of you, slowly lower your arms back down. 5) Once your arms are extended out in front of you again, you should feel tension in your biceps. Perform this exercise 10-15 times.
The Classic Pulldown
The classic pulldown is a great exercise for the chest, back, and shoulders. It involves pulling the weight toward the chest, while keeping it close to the body. A machine that doesn’t give you proper guidance on how to properly perform the exercise, or doesn’t give you the chance to recover properly will cause injury, or even fail to grow. Although not too complex for beginners, some machines require a significant amount of time to master.
Calf Raise
This video walks you through how to do the barbell calf raise in lat pulldown. Start by bending your knees, grabbing the barbell with your hands and standing up straight. This way you can easily keep your back straight while keeping your feet in the same place and have better leverage. Next, pull your head and chest down and lift the barbell, so that it is over your hip and in front of your body. This is what is called a negative start position. Next, push yourself up while holding the barbell and maintain a slight bend in your knees. Your body will naturally stretch, which is why you are not yet standing fully straight up. You should be in the half squat position when your thighs are parallel to the floor, but they are not actually in contact with the floor yet. Once you feel like you are ready to stand fully upright, then you are ready to push yourself up. This will make your thighs touch the floor, and you will be fully standing. Once this is done, you should be able to bend your knees into a standing position. Make sure that your lower back is naturally in a neutral position. Do not arch your back when you go to get up. You should be lifting the bar off of the floor, so your body is already under tension. Now that you are standing in a standing position, slowly let go of the bar. Do not cheat by letting your knees buckle as you are going to have to do this again. If you stand
