Overview

The reverse grip pull-down is an exercise that targets the traps. To perform the reverse grip pull-down, you will need a pull-down machine and a weighted bar. Start by sitting down on the machine and adjusting the seat so that your knees are slightly bent and your feet are flat on the floor. Grab the bar with an overhand grip, but turn your hands so that your palms are facing away from you. Your arms should be extended in front of you, with your elbows slightly bent, Pull the bar down until it touches your chest, then slowly release it back to the starting position. Repeat this for the desired number of repetitions. The reverse grip pull-down is a great exercise for targeting the traps because it allows you to focus on the muscles in the back of your shoulders. It is also a good way to build strength and size in your back.
