Connect a wide bar to a high pulley or lat pull down machine, standing one stride away facing the pulley, grasping the bar with your arms double shoulder width apart.

 

START
FINISH
keep your back straight - looking upwards
take your elbows behind as you pull bar to chin / upper chest

Keeping your abdominal and lower back muscles contracted to aid fixing your straight back position, smoothly pull the bar towards your chin / upper chest, keeping your elbows wide, aiming to pull your shoulder blades together.

Hold in the final phase for 2 – 3 seconds, prior to returning back to the straight-arm position in a controlled manner.

Avoid leaning forward or jerking back during the movement, taking care not to hit your chin in the final phase.
