Wide-Grip Pulldown Behind The Neck

Cable Lats

The Wide-Grip Pulldown Behind The Neck is a strength movement that targets your lats. Here's how to do it with clean form.

How to do the Wide-Grip Pulldown Behind The Neck

  1. Take a wide overhand grip and lean your torso slightly forward to clear your head.
  2. Pull the bar down to the base of your skull, driving elbows out and down.
  3. Return the bar slowly — do not let it crash upward.
  4. Use conservative weight; this position stresses the cervical spine under load.
