Video Tutorial: Wide Grip Lat Pull-down

This is an exercise that I see so many people doing in the gym, and you wouldn’t believe the amount of people who think that it is an “arm workout,” or an “arm machine.” THIS IS A BACK WORKOUT! THE PRIMARY MUSCLE GROUP IN THIS EXERCISE IS THE LATISSIMUS DORSI! AKA YOUR UPPER BACK! There are many variations of this exercise, like wide-grip, close grip, and so on. The form generally speaking stays relatively the same. You must set your shoulders, and keep your chest high during the entire exercise. You do not need to lean so far back either… It is not a back bend! Anyway, watch and enjoy! Please let me know if you have any feedback for future videos!!
