Straight Arm Pulldowns for a MASSIVE back

Key Points:
► Grasp the bar shoulder width or slightly wider. Overhand or neutral grip, elbows are slightly bent, and remain this way through the entire duration of the set.
► For a maximum ROM, start with your body bent at the waist to at least 45-degrees or further. Allow the arms to come up over your head, while maintaining a flat or slightly arched back.
► Contract the lat muscles and slowly pull the bar toward your thigh. Maintain a rigid, slightly bent arm. The ark of the movement should be large and far away from your body.
