My favorite exercise next to the barbell squat.
A few tips to make it work better for you;
- i would recommend you do pull ups, chin ups, or something that stretches your lats before doing this exercise as you will feel the muscles working and thus will know when you are doing the exercise correctly
- start with a decent amount of weight (not too low or too high) so you know the motion and how to incorporate the correct muscles
- don't wrap your thumb around the attachment but instead use your hands as if they where hooks
- pull back with your elbows and use your lats into the pulling motion (use your biceps as little as possible)
If you follow all of these steps you will feel the pump in your lats and middle back and not your biceps like many people do. Cheers.-See Less
