Face pull con goma

Shoulders · Band

How to do it

Anchor the band at face height on a door or a solid point and step back so it is already pulling. Pull towards your forehead separating your hands, finishing with high elbows behind shoulder line and thumbs pointing back. The band gets hardest right at the end, which is where the rear delt needs tension: squeeze there for a second. You feel it behind the shoulder and between the blades. With a band you can do high reps (15-20) without loading the joint, and it is the best thing you can do at home for shoulder health.

Variants

The drawing is the cable version. With a band, anchor it at face height and step back until it is already tight before the first rep.

The drawing shows one way of doing it, and the technique above describes that one. Almost every exercise has variants — standing or seated, the grip, the bench angle — and is still the same exercise: if you do it another way, write it in the exercise note and you will have it every time you train it.
