It trains the lats, upper back, rear delts and biceps through a full range, and the thigh pads hold the user down so the weight can go higher than bodyweight.\r\n\r\n<strong>Types of Lat Pulldown Machines<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe selectorized lat pulldown runs a cable from a weight stack over a high pulley to a wide bar, and takes any attachment: wide grip, close grip, V-bar or rope. The plate-loaded iso-lateral pulldown replaces the cable with two independent arms, so each side moves on its own and the load can exceed what a stack allows. Combination units pair a high pulley with a low row on the same frame, which saves floor space in a small gym. Most commercial floors run one selectorized pulldown for volume and one iso-lateral for heavy work.\r\n\r\n<strong>What to Check Before Buying<\/strong>\r\n\r\nStack size first: a 100 kg stack covers most members; serious back training wants 120 kg or an iso-lateral unit. Thigh pads should adjust without tools and hold a tall user firmly. On a cable unit, look at the pulley bearings and the cable rating; on a plate-loaded unit, look at the arm pivot and whether the handles converge at the bottom of the pull.\r\n\r\n<strong>How to Use a Lat Pulldown Machine<\/strong>\r\n\r\nSet the thigh pads so the legs are locked with feet flat. Take a grip just wider than the shoulders, lean back a few degrees, and pull the bar to the upper chest while driving the elbows down and back. Pause, then let the bar rise until the arms are straight and the shoulders lift. Three sets of 8 to 12 reps, moving the pin up once 12 clean reps are easy.","link":"https:\/\/tzfit.com\/ja\/product-category\/lat-pulldown-machines\/","name":"Lat Pulldown Machines","slug":"lat-pulldown-machines","taxonomy":"product_cat","parent":0,"meta":[],"menu_order":0,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tzfit.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat\/114","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tzfit.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tzfit.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/product_cat"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/tzfit.com\/ja\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?product_cat=114"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
