Cable Pulldown (Pro Lat Bar)

Setup

1. 01Attach the pro lat bar to the high pulley and set the thigh pad snug.
2. 02Grip the angled ends where the bar bends downward.
3. 03Sit with arms fully extended and the cable taut.
4. 04Set a tall chest with a slight backward lean.

Execution

1. 01Drive the elbows down and slightly back to bring the bar to the upper chest.
2. 02Let the angled grips keep the wrists straight as the elbows travel wide.
3. 03Squeeze the lats and pull the shoulder blades down at the bottom.
4. 04Control the bar back to a full overhead stretch.

Checkpoints

• -Wrists stay neutral along the angled handles, not bent back.
• -Torso angle is set once and held for the whole set.
• -Elbows track down under the bar ends rather than flaring behind the head.
• -Shoulders stay depressed at the top stretch.

Common mistakes

• -Gripping the straight center section and losing the wrist-friendly angle.
• -Swinging the torso to start heavy reps.
• -Pulling the bar behind the neck instead of to the chest.
• -Releasing the top position too fast and losing lat tension.
