Reverse-Grip Machine Lat Pulldown

Expert Advice

Maintain a slight arch in your lower back and keep your chest up throughout the movement to fully engage your lats.

Sit down at a lat pulldown machine and secure your thighs under the pads.
Grasp the bar with an underhand grip (palms facing you) at shoulder width.
Lean back slightly and pull the bar down to your chest, squeezing your shoulder blades together.
Slowly return the bar to the starting position while maintaining control.
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
