- The latissimus dorsi receives particular emphasis during the short-seated cable pulldown. — Short-Seated Cable Pulldown
- The lat's primary action on the humerus is internal rotation, which produces the characteristic wide, internally rotated arm carriage of the syndrome. — Asymmetrical Infrasternal Angle, SI Joint Testing, and Imaginary Lat Syndrome
- The lat generates maximal force when the distance between its upper and lower attachment ends is minimized. — Asymmetrical Infrasternal Angle, SI Joint Testing, and Imaginary Lat Syndrome
- Social and aesthetic motivations may reinforce the wide arm position, but the biomechanical foundation driving it is real. — Asymmetrical Infrasternal Angle, SI Joint Testing, and Imaginary Lat Syndrome
- Keeping the shoulder positioned down and back during the pull targets the lats effectively. — Short-Seated Cable Pulldown
