VARIATIONS

Half-Kneeling One-Arm Cable Lat Pulldown

One hand pulls a cable handle while half-kneeling

This unilateral exercise targets the latissimus dorsi while challenging core stability. The half-kneeling stance minimizes momentum to ensure strict form.

HOW TO DO IT

  1. Kneel on one knee beside the cable machine facing the high pulley.
  2. Grasp the handle with one hand and extend your arm fully overhead.
  3. Pull the handle down towards your shoulder while keeping your torso upright.
  4. Squeeze your lat muscle hard at the bottom of the movement.
  5. Return the handle to the start position with slow control.
