Share with a brother who trains. 🏹 The Prophet ﷺ said it three times: “Strength is in archery.” (Sahih Muslim 1917) That pulling motion? Pure rear delt work—the muscles that stabilize your shoulders and give you strong posture. And we don’t even need bows. Just hit cable archer rows at the gym. Comment “ARCHER” below for the full breakdown on how to do this right.

EZ Bar & Band Archer Pulls...because you don't come to me for normal. Yes, this actually IS a real exercise and it's pretty fun to do... I think training SHOULD be fun, even if it sometimes looks insane! You might be familiar with Cable Archer Pulls (or Band Archer Pulls) for rear delts and upper back. So I thought, you know what...let's take it to the next level. And seriously, if you try it and catch it on video, tag me on it (especially if you do it in a commercial gym!). My first attempt was adding bands to a full size Olympic bar. That ended up being too heavy and compromising the intended purpose of the exercise. It actually was very challenging in a lot of other ways but it didn't give me a good Archer Pull for rear delts. The EZ Bar is perfect for it. I have full setup instructions in the back half of the video. Ideally, you'll want a pair of spring clips to cradle the band and keep it from slipping down. If you don't have spring clips, use a couple of small plates (2 1/2's if you have them) and collar them on. I'm using a single small/medium sized silicone band from @vectorathlete (link in bio under "Product Links" - code FITPOWER20 gets you 20% off). Grip the bar in the center with the camber point away. Hold the band (both "strings") with your second and third fingers. Now draw it back like a bow (I'm not an archer so I just did what felt right with it). This is the action that brings in the rear delts and upper back (to stabilize the scapulae). Keep your back elbow high to really get the rear delt involved. You want a straight line from your front hand to back elbow for proper bracing. I found it worked best to hold the draw tension for a second or two. Then just release the tension and go again (I didn't release the bands like you would a bowstring when shooting an arrow). You probably can but I didn't. Please don't use this setup to shoot anything at anybody or anything :) Got a lagging muscle that refuses to grow? 👇 Just comment MASS or GUIDE and I’ll DM you the Mass Targeting Specialization guide. #madscientistofmuscle #reardelts #archerpull #upperback #postureexercise #betterposture #archerexercise #reareltexercise

*Insert Old English accent* We are going to war, lads! 😤 Grab your bows and prepare to defend ourselves! But FIRST, we must master the art of wielding a bow and arrow through diligent practice! 🏹 On a serious note 👀 Cable archer rows are an excellent exercise for building strength, improving muscular balance, and enhancing coordination. ❓What muscles does this exercise work❓ This unilateral movement primarily targets the lats, traps, rhomboids, rear deltoids, and biceps, while engaging the core for stability. The archer-style motion also emphasizes scapular retraction and shoulder mobility, making it ideal for improving posture and upper-body functionality. ❓Who is this beneficial for❓ They are especially beneficial for athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and individuals looking to correct muscle imbalances or enhance pulling strength. They’re also a great option for anyone wanting to add variety to their back workouts without heavy spinal loading. ✨Wearing the FormLux Original Sculptseam® Plus Legging Eucalyptus in Small and Reluna Ruched Bralette Eucalyptus in Small from @paragonfitwear 🤍 #CableArcherRow #BackDay #StrengthTraining #FunctionalFitness #UnilateralTraining #PullWorkout #PostureImprovement #Lats #FitTips #Archer #Archery #Athlete

The archer row isn’t bad... but here’s why I’d swap it out. Thanks to @thequadfatherbw for the variation. Traps take over before your rear delts even kick in. Small cable adjustment and body position fixes it. Try it next shoulder day and let me know how you go 👇

Rear Delts im Kabelzug? Cable Archer Pulls könnten dein Cheatcode sein ✅ Setup: Kabel auf Schulterhöhe, Körper bleibt stabil (keine Rotation) / optional: Kabel zur Schläfe ziehen. 1 Sek Pause hinten + langsame Negative und du triffst die hintere Schulter brutal gut. 🔥 Speicher dir das für den nächsten Pull-Day. #hintereschulter #reardelts #kabelzug #gymtipps #krafttraining

🏹 Bulletproof Shoulders for the 9-to-5 Grind If you spend your days hunched over a laptop or carrying toddlers around, your shoulders are rolling forward and your posture is taking a hit. Enter the Single Arm Cable "Archer" Face Pull. This isn’t just about building 3D delts (though it definitely does that); it’s about structural balance. By working unilaterally, we can fix the imbalances caused by carrying a briefcase, diaper bag, or favoring your mouse hand. Why busy parents & pros need this: 1️⃣ Efficiency: Hits the rear delts, traps, and external rotators in one smooth motion. 2️⃣ Longevity: Strengthens the rotator cuff to keep your joints healthy for the long haul. 3️⃣ Posture: Opens up the chest and pulls the shoulders back, undoing the "desk slump." 🚀 The Form Cues: Set cable at eye level. Grab the rope/handle with one hand (no attachment works too). Pull back like you are drawing a bow 🏹. Keep the elbow high and squeeze hard at the ear. Don't let the grind break your body down. Build muscle that functions as good as it looks. 📌 Save this for your next shoulder day! #fitdad #fitmom #corporatewellness #shoulderhealth #rear_delts #posturefix #longevitytraining #functionalbodybuilding

A.k.a., Supported Archer Face Pulls Because I’m slightly side-on to the cable, the upper arm comes across the chest more — almost like an archer. That does a few important things 👇 ➡️ Changes the line of pull ➡️ Increases posterior delt engagement in a more lengthened range, versus standard face pulls. ➡️ Forces better scapula–humerus coordination ➡️ Exposes cheating you get away with in standard face pulls Why I like this variation: ✔️ Less momentum ✔️ More honest reps ✔️ Good carryover to real-world and sport positions ✔️ Great for lifters who “do face pulls” but don’t really feel them ✔️ The bench support helps eliminate body English, and compensatory movements you often see with standard face pulls gone wrong (overextension of the lower back etc.) Overall, I still like standard (dual rope, seated or standing) face pulls and will still program them alot more than I ever would these, but “archer” face pulls are a nice option to throw in the mix. “Archer” face pulls aren’t a heavy movement. Think control > load, and let the shoulder do the work. Save it. Try it. Your shoulders will tell you the difference. Gareth P.s., if you’ve got larger pecs then you’ll feel slightly limited in range of motion with these as your arm crosses your body. Still works, but you might need to alter your facing angle a little. #facepull #shoulderhealth #shoulderstrength #reardelts
