ISOMETRIC LAT PULLDOWN

This is a latissimus dorsi activation drill that uses an isometric contraction to warm up the muscle. Start by sitting next to an exercise bench and place your elbow on it with your fist pointing towards the ceiling. Put downward pressure on the bench using your elbow to get the latissimus dorsi to contract in shoulder adduction. Hold this contraction for 5-7 seconds and relax to compete a repetition. Repeat as required.
