This is a compound exercise that also involves the biceps, forearms, and the rear deltoids. Equipment: cable machine or pulldown machine. Major variants: chin-up or pullup (using the body weight while hanging from a high bar), close grip ~ (more emphasis on the lower lats), reverse grip ~ (more emphasis on the biceps).
The upright row is one exercise that can be performed on the cable machine.

The more-recent USB-C cables may also have identical connectors on both ends (in which case the logical A and B ends are negotiated between the attached ...
