How to do the pulldown back exercise using the Hammer Strength machine:
Set the seat of the machine and the top pad to the desired height. I like to leave the top pad up and knock it into position with my knee when I am seated and ready to do the exercise.
Grasping the handles from the bottom (at the top of the movement), pull them down close to your sides as far as they can go. Release and let the handles go as far up as you can without locking your elbows or straightening your arms to the top of the movement. Repeat for desired number of repetitions.
Remember to breathe. Inhale as you pull down the handles and exhale as you release back upwards the handles.
Do about 4-5 sets of 12 repetitions each.
