Target muscle: Latissimus Dorsi Synergists: Brachialis, Brachioradialis, Biceps Brachii, Teres Major, Posterior Deltoid, Infraspinatus, Teres Minor, Rhomboids, Levator Scapulae, Middle and Lower Trapezius, Pectoralis Minor

Primary Muscles: Lats; Secondary Muscles : Biceps, Posterior Deltoid, rhomboids, Middle and Lower Trapezius, Pectoralis Minor. With a wider grip, more of the lats will be required to work. Your grip should be wider than usual but the form and technique remain the same.

This guide focuses on the muscles worked by lat pulldowns, primarily the latissimus dorsi. It also engages the biceps, trapezius, rhomboids, and posterior deltoids, which are all critical to the exercise's mechanics.

The lat pulldown works many muscles, including the latissimus dorsi, pectoralis major, rotator cuff, and biceps brachii.

Muscles Worked by the Lat Pulldown Unsurprisingly the exercise mainly targets the lats. It also works the: Grip Forearms Biceps Delts Core
