Instruction
- Adjust the seat and backrest so that the handles are positioned above your head or slightly above your chest, then sit down and grip the handles to prepare.
- Keep your back and hips firmly against the seat, and plant your feet solidly on the floor to stabilize your posture.
- With your elbows fixed at a slightly bent angle, exhale as you pull the handles toward your body (toward your thighs or the front of your chest) using the strength of your latissimus dorsi. Rather than pulling with your arms, focus on driving the movement by pulling your armpits downward.
- Pause briefly at the lowest point where your lats are fully contracted, then inhale as you slowly raise the handles back up to the starting position while feeling the stretch in your lats.
