SportsArt Status Independent Lat Pulldown - S916

The SportsArt Status Independent Lat Pulldown S916 works the latissimus dorsi and arm muscles by pulling the arms downwards along a guided cable trajectory. Premium bio-mechanical features deliver independently moving arms for unilateral training and anatomically appropriate movement paths. This creates weight stack resistance that enables the workload to be adjusted to suit each user type. 

The SportsArt Status Independent Lat Pulldown S916 is part of the Status Selectorized Strength Series, a 9-piece circuit training strength machine line that targets the upper and lower body suited for commercial gyms, hotel workout centers, training studios, and home personal gyms. 

Each machine is built to last in the most demanding commercial environments, with heavy gauge, oval steel tubing, Kevlar-reinforced belts, internally lubricated cables with deep-channel pulleys, and sealed bearings.
