A multi-joint exercise & concentric exercise, using a high cable with a supinated grip (lat bar attachment).
Considered a middle-back exercise, with the following muscle groups:
- targeted: lats and biceps
- secondary: deltoids (posterior deltoid) and forearms (forearm flexors)
Level: beginner (less challenging than the chin-up).
Exercise grading: B for the lats (shifts some tension to the biceps).
An alternative to the chin-up, with a wider and more progressive difficulty range.
Not to be confused with pronated pull-down.
A.k.a.: supinated cable lat pull-down
