#Face Pull Cable Routine

The seated face pull is a great variation of the traditional face pull because sitting down helps reduce momentum and keeps the focus on your upper back and rear delts. To set it up, attach a rope handle to a cable machine at about upper chest or face height. Sit on a bench or the floor facing the machine and grab the rope with both hands using a neutral grip. Extend your arms fully so there is tension in the cable. Sit upright with your chest tall, core engaged, and shoulders relaxed. From this position, pull the rope toward your face while leading with your elbows. As the rope gets close, allow your hands to separate so the ends of the rope move toward the sides of your face. At the end of the movement, focus on squeezing your shoulder blades together and contracting your rear delts and upper back. Slowly return the rope to the starting position while maintaining control and tension in the cable. Key technique tips: Keep your torso upright throughout the movement Lead the pull with your elbows, not your hands Avoid shrugging your shoulders Control the return instead of letting the weight pull you forward The seated face pull is excellent for improving shoulder stability, posture, and upper back strength, making it a valuable exercise for anyone who lifts weights regularly. Strong upper back. Stable shoulders. Better posture. #facepull #upperbacktraining #rear delts #shoulderstability #strengthtraining 💪

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

Week 11 of Train It Right Seated Cable Face Pulls THE exercise for upper back gains 👀
…and one of the best moves to counter train your rounded posture from long hours of sitting or scrolling 😉 How to do the Rope Face Pull: - Set the cable at eye level when standing - Grab the rope with an underhand grip (overhand works too). - Sit about one meter away and lean back slightly. - Pull the rope towards your face, elbows out to the sides. - Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the end. - Return slowly with control. Watch for common mistakes: - Pulling too low (to chest instead of face). - Shrugging the shoulders instead of engaging your 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

🔸FACE PULLS🔸 ❓Welche Variante bevorzugt Ihr❓ Eine mega gute Übung für den oberen Rücken und die hinteren Schultern! Je nach Ausführung kann man den Fokus verschieben… 🔸FOKUS SCHULTERN: Greift man das Seil von oben und zieht es Richtung Kinn, liegt der Fokus auf das maximale Auseinander- und Zusammenziehen der Schulterblätter. ❗️Damit kannst du eine aufrechte Körperhaltung trainieren bzw. gegen einen Rundrücken vorbeugen. 🔸FOKUS RÜCKEN: Greift man das Seil von unten und zieht es nach außen Richtung Stirn, kommt es vermehrt zu einer Außenrotation im Schultergelenk. Dadurch werden primär die Außenrotatoren beansprucht! ❗️Sehr wichtig für ein gesundes Schultergelenk.

✅ 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.
