Machine Pulldown

The machine pulldown uses a plate-loaded or selectorized lever machine with a fixed movement path to train the vertical pull. The guided path provides stability and is well suited to beginners, high-rep work, or training to failure with reduced balance demands. Many iso-lateral machines allow each arm to work independently; set the seat so the handles align overhead and pull the elbows down and back.
