Grasp the bar with a wide grip, palms facing forward, and your hands wider than shoulder-width apart.
Lean slightly back, keeping your back straight, and pull the bar down towards your upper chest, squeezing your shoulder blades together as you do so.
Pause for a moment in this position, maintaining the squeeze in your back muscles.
Slowly return the bar to the starting position, allowing your arms to fully extend and feeling a stretch in your lats. Repeat the movement for your desired number of repetitions.
Pro Tip
Correct Grip: Grasp the bar with a wide grip. Your hands should be more than shoulder-width apart, and your palms should be facing forward. A common mistake is gripping the bar too narrowly, which can put undue stress on your wrists and elbows and limit the engagement of your lat muscles. Controlled Movements: When pulling the bar down, do so in a slow and controlled manner. Avoid the common mistake of using momentum to jerk the bar down, as this can lead to injury and reduces the effectiveness of the exercise. Full Range of Motion: Ensure you're using a full range of motion. Pull the bar down until it's approximately level with your chin and then let it rise
