3️⃣ steps to engaging your lats:
1️⃣ Grab the handle and lean back while engaging your core. Leaning back allows a fuller stretch at the top of the exercise and an extended range of motion during the pull.
2️⃣ Initiate the movement by retracting your shoulder blades and pulling the handle down. Focus on engaging your lats and avoid using momentum. Keep movement controlled to maximize activation. Even though you are leaning back, you are maintaining position.
3️⃣ Pull towards the body and slowly raise handle back up to starting position focusing on the eccentric phase. Aim for a full stretch at the top.
