The Three Worst Lat Pulldown Mistakes

Here are the three most common mistakes on the lap pulldown.

Mistake number one, swaying back too far.

The correction, keep yourself up tall, sticking your chest up and pulling the bar down.

 

Mistake number two, not using your scapula.

People do this, they round forward the shoulders and they don’t use their upper back at all. The solution for this is to depress the lats in, tucking your armpits into your underpants, pulling the bar down, sticking your chest up.

 

Mistake number three, using momentum.

This one can be found at any gym around the world on any given night. People just using momentum. You don’t wanna use momentum. What you wanna do is keep forward, stretch forward your body, stretch out the lats, stretch and squeeze the upper back together, stretch and squeeze the upper back together.

 

Those are the three mistakes and the three fixes. For more training videos, visit us on EnterpriseFitness Youtube page.
