- Grab the handles with a neutral grip and let them sit in your palms with a soft grip to eliminate arm engagement. 
- On the way down, focus on squeezing your traps and rhomboids.
- Briefly hold the squeeze at the bottom.
- Slowly go back to your original position keeping tension on, and fully extend your arms at the top to stretch the lats.

Consideration: play around with a slight lean back if it helps contract the upper back, especially if you’re a taller individual.

Close Grip Pulldown (Upper Back)

- Grab the handles in a narrow, higher position. 
- Stand out of the seat and use the pad to brace yourself. 
- Let shoulders come forward at the start of the movement for full extension and stretch through the lower lat.
- Focus on pulling through the lower lat and keeping the elbows low and tight to the body.

Supported Machine Row

- Hold the bar with your palms facing you.
- Keep your back in a neutral position bracing your core.
- Pull the barbell up engaging your lats as you pull.
- Pause at the top and lower with a controlled motion.
