Do Girth Exercises Really Work?
Grasp a handle from each side of the v-bar with an underhand grip and straighten your arms.
- Step 1: Grasp a handle from each side of the v-bar with an underhand grip and straighten your arms.

- Third Step: Slowly lower yourself to the starting position.
Pressing through your heels, drive your hips forward, bend your elbows, and pull down in front of you until the handles are below chin level.
- When doing this exercise, it is important to keep your knees bent, chest up, and shoulders back throughout the movement.
- Initiate the pull by pressing your heels into the floor, driving your hips forward, and bending your elbows to drive down towards yourself until the bar reaches chin level.
- Your elbows should remain close to your body throughout the motion.
- Control the weight on its way down until the arms are fully extended.
Pause at the bottom before returning to the start position.
- Pause at the bottom position. When you get to the bottom, pause for a moment to avoid using momentum as part of your lift.
- Avoid letting the weight stack touch the top of the weight stack. It is important that you carefully control its speed so that it does not hit the top of the weight stack at its apex.
- Do not drop or bounce the weight stack on your way down. This can be damaging to both you and your equipment and could cause an injury if you aren’t careful.
- Do not use momentum to lift weights in lieu of muscle power; this will not build strength in any meaningful way
The V-Bar pulldown exercise is performed using either a standard or cable pulley machine. It is a great alternative to lat pulldowns because it targets more muscles than an overhand grip, including the biceps, forearms, and lats (latissimus dorsi).
