STANDING LAT PULL DOWN

This is a strengthening exercise for the latissimus dorsi muscle. Start by standing with a pull up assist or strength band anchored above and in front of you. Grab the band with both hands and pull it towards your chest while leading the movement with your elbows. Keep the core braced and maintain a slightly extended curvature through the spine. Slowly allow the band to pull your arms back up to full range to complete a repetition.
