Unlocking Strength: The Muscles Targeted by the Lat Pulldown
The lat pulldown targets the latissimus dorsi, the broad back muscles that contribute to the desired v-shaped physique. This exercise, typically done on a cable machine, also involves the biceps, brachialis, and brachioradialis for pulling. Moreover, it engages the rhomboids and trapezius for scapula stability and may activate the posterior deltoids and pectoralis minor for shoulder support. Proper execution enhances back strength, posture, and overall upper-body power.
