Lat pull downs are a fantastic exercise to strengthen the upper body. They are designed to target the latissimus dorsi muscles in the upper back, but also benefit the bicep, trapezius and pectoralis major muscles. The workout involves a lever machine, where resistance is given as the user pulls downward.
The lat pull down exercise equipment is highly similar to a pull up, though the machine allows the user to have as much or as little resistance as they would like. This allows them to use more than their own body weight to build mass, or little weight at high reps to build definition. It is one of the best and most popular exercises for the upper back, and can be found in almost every gym.
