The Lever One Arm Lateral Wide Pulldown is a strength training exercise that targets the muscles in the back, specifically the latissimus dorsi. This exercise helps to improve strength and muscle definition in the upper back and shoulders.
How to perform
To perform the Lever One Arm Lateral Wide Pulldown, follow these steps:1. Sit down on the Lever One Arm Lateral Wide Pulldown machine, making sure that your feet are flat on the ground and your back is straight.
2. Grip the handle with one hand in an overhand grip, with your palm facing away from you.
3. Extend your arm straight up towards the machine, keeping your elbow slightly bent.
4. Slowly pull the handle down towards your shoulder, keeping your elbow close to your body and your back straight.
5. Pause at the bottom of the movement, squeezing your back muscles.
6. Slowly release the handle back to the starting position, fully extending your arm.
7. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions on one arm, then switch to the other arm.
It is important to use controlled movements and focus on contracting the back muscles throughout the exercise. Start with a light weight to ensure proper form and technique before increasing the resistance.
Equipment required
Leverage Machine (Plate Loaded)
Leverage Machine (Plate Loaded) equipment is used for strength training exercises. It consists of a weight-loaded lever system attached to a seat or bench to provide resistance. These machines are designed to target specific muscle groups and allow for controlled and isolated movements to build muscle strength and mass. They are commonly used for exercises such as chest presses, squats, rows, and shoulder presses.
