Exercise To Gain Weight : Lat Pull Downs

 Lat Pull Downs

There has been much debate about whether Pull Ups or Lat Pull Downs are superior for maximizing back muscles, but my personal preference is Lat Pull Downs.

Sure, Pull Ups might utilize more stabilizer muscles, but what if you can’t do pull ups yet and what do you do once you can easily lift your own weight?

In order to gain weight, you need to stimulate muscle growth, and this requires you to do a certain amount of reps and lift a certain amount of weights, which will change over time.

Lat Pulls Downs offers you this flexibility. You can easily adjust the weights as you get stronger and stronger, and can even lift more than your own weight if you wanted to.

What’s great about this exercise is that you stretch and squeeze your lats more than you could with Pull Ups, and can easily control the weights to MAXIMIZE your muscle growth.

        TIP: Squeeze and hold onto your lats for a second at the bottom of the motion
