For various types of equipment in the gym, each equipment has corresponding movements, and these movements are developed for parts of the human body. If you want to exercise the latissimus dorsi, what equipment is best to use? , I believe many people don’t know much about it. So, what equipment in the gym can exercise the latissimus dorsi? Come and take a look!

1. Pull-ups

Everyone should know about pull-ups. What should be done, but maybe the specific exercise essentials are still not well grasped. In fact, when doing pull-ups, what we need to do most is to hang still and keep our arms in a straight state. The two legs are relatively close to each other, or they can be crossed. Remember, at this time, do not use the strength of the arms to lift our body upward, but use the strength of the latissimus dorsi to lift the body. We must pay attention to the point where we exert force, rather than letting the arms exert force. If we let the arms exert force, the position of the exercise will be different.

2. Seated pull-down

Seated pull-down requires us to sit in a position first, confirm the position, and then fix it, and then use both hands according to the grip distance and grip requirements. Hold the handles on both sides of the upper horizontal bar respectively, and then let the muscle groups of our shoulders be in a locked state, and let the body slowly sink and lean back. At this time, everyone needs to inhale, and then use the latissimus dorsi force to slowly pull down from the position of our head to the chest, and stop for about three seconds. After doing this, you can exhale, and then slowly return to the original position. During the process of doing this movement, the body should remain relatively stable and should not swing around.

3. One-arm pull-down

This action is actually holding a D-shaped handle. We need to sit on the cushion first, then hold it with one hand, and put the other free hand on the top of the knee, so that our body will be more stable. At this time, pull the handle down vertically, and remember to ensure that our elbows are close to the body. At this time, contract the muscles in the back, raise the chest and tighten the core muscles. Do not rotate the body. At this time, exercise At the lowest point, squeeze your shoulder blades hard and let our shoulder blades slowly approach each other. This state should be maintained for about two seconds. After that, slowly straighten your arms.
