Single-Arm Lat Pulldown

1. Set up the cable machine by attaching a single handle grip to the high pulley.

2. Stand to the side of the cable machine, feet shoulder-width apart for stability.

3. Grab the handle with one hand, palm facing down. Ensure your arm is fully extended and the shoulder is relaxed. Keep a slight bend in the elbow to avoid joint strain.

4. Engage your core and keep a straight back as you initiate the movement.

5. Pull the handle down towards your side, focusing on moving through the elbow and contracting your lat muscles as you bring the handle down.

6. Continue pulling down until your hand is aligned with your torso, remember to keep your torso stationary during this motion.

7. Slowly return the handle to the starting position with a controlled movement, allowing your lat to fully stretch.

8. Complete your set for one arm before switching to the other side.

9. Adjust the weight according to your fitness level to perform a controlled movement for the desired number of repetitions and sets.

Remember to breathe out as you pull the handle down and inhale as you return to the starting position. Ensure you perform the exercise with controlled movements to maximize muscle engagement and to prevent injury.
