When you lift rows and pull-downs, your arms are supposed to be hooks. You shouldn't use the arms in the lifts. You've probably heard this before and if you have trouble with arms getting tired before you get tired in the lats then this post is for you.
I've been looking around the gym and I've never seen anyone perform this. When you grip the pull-down bar or the barbell/dumbell when doing rows do not slip the thumb around and grasp it completly. Instead just hold the bar with your four other fingers. By doing this your fingers will work as hooks alot easier than if you would slip your thumb around. I guarantee you will feel your lats working alot more.
