#Cable Face Pulls

✅ Cable Rope Pull Variations (KNOW THE DIFFERENCE‼️) If you hold the rope (with pinkies up and thumbs down) and pull towards your forehead, you’ll target the lateral and rear delts. If you hold the rope (with a regular neutral grip) and pull towards your shoulders, you’ll target the rear delts and traps. If you pull towards your waist, you’ll target the latissimus dorsi.

Rear Delt Cable Face Pull - Quick Tips & Key Points ✅Grip: Start with thumbs pointing down. As you pull, your thumbs should rotate to face your head, with palms mostly facing each other and slightly downward. This grip reduces wrist strain. ✅Elbow Position: Keep your elbows in line with your shoulders. Don’t let them drop-this helps fully activate the rear delts. ✅ Forearm Vertical & Pull Toward Forehead: Keep your forearms close to vertical and aim the rope toward your forehead-not your chin—to better isolate the rear delts. ✅ Outward Arm Movement: As you pull the rope toward your face, also spread your hands outward. It‘s a combined motion -pulling back and out-to maximally engage the rear delts. #arms #homeworkout #workoutathome #gymmotivation #gymgirl #fyp #gymtips #shoulders #shoulderworkouts #upperbodyworkout #homeworkout #dumbbellworkout #strengthtraining #facepulls #back

Not confident in your face-pulls? I gotchu 🫶 This exercise is amazing for improving shoulder & rotator cuff health. But it’s also one that’s not as intuitive. Here are my best form cues to help optimise your movement: ⭐️ Grip the rope with a reverse grip - ends of the rope should face you as you pull. ⭐️ Set the cable height above your head height so you are pulling from a high position rather than low. ⭐️ Think of pulling to your forehead and outwards from your ears. ⭐️ Make sure your shoulders are depressed away from your ears and externallly rotated. ⭐️ Think of pulling into a double bicep flexed pose! 💪💪 Note: there are more ways than one to perform this exercise, but these are some tips to help better target your posterior delts and strengthen your shoulders. #gymtips #facepull #shoulderworkout #pullday #gymmotivation #exercisetips #formtips #strongshoulders

While there are multiple ways to perform Facepulls depending on your goal, in my opinion, the method that makes the most sense is gonna be to train external rotation of the shoulder. The other common way is usually to bias the rear delts but considering that there are probably better exercises for that, the first option makes more sense. With that understanding, the things that you should be focusing on when you’re doing face bowls for external rotation is to: 1) Grip the rope with your thumbs facing back. This will help you avoid any wrist discomfort that might occur. 2) Get into an externally rotated shoulder to begin with by leading with your hands in the most contracted position. Your hands and elbows should be aligned with each other, like you’re doing a front double bicep. 3) Aim the rope for the top of your head rather than your face. This will help you get into that external rotated position. Great exercise to include if you’re more anterior dominant

Face pulls are not just about pulling the cable, elbow angle determines muscle emphasis. For rear delts and shoulder health, aim for a 90° elbow position. Follow for more!! #gymtips #gymreels

Size & Shred Training program 👉🏻 deltabolic.com (link in bio) ✅ Do Face Pulls LIKE THIS! 1) Use a reverse grip on the rope (thumbs toward your face, pinkies toward the cable). This shifts more tension to the rear delts and reduces upper-trap takeover. 2) Go kneeling for better stability. Standing works, but less stability = less load. More stability = better control and progression. 3) Keep your shoulders down and depressed. If they shrug up, your traps take over. 4) Pull the rope toward your face — not your neck or chest. Aim eye-level to keep tension on the rear delts.
