Linkage strength equipment

Linkage

— pull, usually performed in a horizontal direction with a weighted rocker arm. The athlete sits with the body in an upright position. The exercise can be performed with one or both hands, in addition, in most simulators with this function there is a chest support, which allows you to keep the body in a stationary position. Anyway, the main emphasis with leverage falls on the muscles of the back, in particular, the latissimus dorsi. A similar function is performed by the T-bar row and dumbbell row with one hand in an incline, but the lever traction has one important advantage: it is safer for the spine.
