The lat pull-down works the latissimius dorsi, which is a muscle in the outer aspect of the chest wall. A common technique error is to grip the bar with a wide grip and bring the bar down behind the neck. A much safer technique is to grip the bar with a narrower grip, and bring the bar to the front of the chest while keeping the back straight.
