The Assisted Pull-up - Answer ✔✔ - primarily targets and develops the latissimus
.P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P
dorsi while stabilizing the shoulder girdle. The desired action is adduction at the
.P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P
shoulder on the concentric phase of contraction without locking out at the elbow on the
.P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P
eccentric phase of muscle contraction.

The Cable Lat Pull-down - Answer ✔✔ - below has less risk than the Pull-up or
.P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P
Assisted Pull-up, but requires less demand on the muscle stabilizers and targeted

Internal Rotation - Answer ✔✔ - occurs when the pull down action is performed
.P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P
beyond the normal ROM of adduction at the shoulder.

Watch for locking out... - Answer ✔✔ - at the elbow in the eccentric phase of the
.P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P
simulation of any pull-up, assisted pull-up, and cable lat pull down. The picture
.P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P
illustrates the activation of the trapezius I and II which elevates the shoulder girdle
.P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P
hence not following ANSER.

T-Bar and Mid Back Row - Answer ✔✔ - target the trapezius III and the deeper
.P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P .P
rhomboids. One must focus on not locking out at the elbow in the eccentric phase of

the contraction, while ending the ROM at the concentric phase of contraction before
