Equipment
Reach overhead to grab the lever bar, ensuring your hands are shoulder-width apart and your palms are facing upward.
With your arms fully extended, pull the lever bar down in a semicircular motion toward your thighs, keeping your arms straight and engaging your lats.
Once the lever bar is near your thighs, pause for a moment, squeezing your back muscles.
Slowly return the lever bar to the starting position above your head, maintaining control and resisting the pull of the weight, then repeat the exercise for your desired number of reps.
