Straight Arm Pulldown
1 - Attach a straight bar or rope handle to a high cable pulley and stand facing the machine.
2 - Grip the attachment with an overhand grip, step back slightly, and hinge forward a little at the hips with your knees softly bent.
3 - Start with your arms extended in front of you at shoulder height or slightly above, keeping a slight bend in your elbows.
4 - Brace your core and pull the attachment down toward your thighs by driving your shoulders down and back, keeping your arms straight throughout the movement.
5 - Squeeze your lats at the bottom without leaning back or bending your elbows excessively.
6 - Slowly return the attachment to the starting position under control, feeling a stretch through your lats.
