Exercise of the week
Cable lat pull downs are this weeks pick, they are a great alternative for people not strong enough to do pull ups. Use 2 handles to really challenge your back muscles.
Adding this exercise into your routine will improve your pulling strength.
Muscles used: latissimus dorsi, biceps, rhomboids
To perform you could either find a seated lat pull down machine or you could set it up yourself on a 2 pulley cable machine. Grasp the handle(s) with a wide grip and pull down to just below your chin.
