Description of exercise The WC close grip Lat pulldowns exercise is a popular strength training exercise that targets the back muscles, specifically the latissimus dorsi or “lats.” It involves using a cable machine with a close grip attachment to pull the weight down towards the chest while keeping the elbows close to the body. This exercise is beneficial for developing upper body strength and improving posture. It also helps to build a wider and thicker back, creating a more defined and muscular appearance. The close grip position targets the lower lats and also engages the biceps, making it a compound movement that works multiple muscle groups at once. It can be modified for different fitness levels by adjusting the weight and using different attachments.
