How to do it

1

Rope Straight Arm Pulldown works the lats through a long range of motion. It can help if you struggle to feel your back during standard pulldown exercises. Cable work keeps tension on the muscles for the full movement. With cables, you train both the concentric and eccentric phases of the exercise. Greater tension means greater muscle activation.
