Overview
The behind-the-neck pull-down is a cable exercise intended to target the muscles of the upper and middle back. If you have the requisite shoulder mobility, it can help you target the upper back muscles, including the trapezius and rhomboids, as well as the lats (latissimus dorsi). It is popular among elite bodybuilders and physique athletes, but some coaches consider it unsafe to the shoulder joint, particularly for people with existing shoulder problems.
