@jayjayx5x1 8 месяцев назад

Jeff’s facepull hits rear felt the most. (Almost no trap activation if you do it right) This while also a facepull, is a trap dominant exercise. So you’d throw it on a back day, not a shoulder day unlike Jeff’s. Also this facepull while great for muscle growth, is shit for posture stability like Jeff’s one. So they have specific uses. I personally do both, use Jeff’s to finish a shoulder workout, and do this one from low mid and high start points to hit all 3 parts of the traps. To add: the specific difference of Jeff’s face pull, is that you rotate and not so much pull, with thumbs pointed out not in, to target the shoulder, and you lead with thumbs, pull back, then slowly lead back in with elbows.

What about overhand grip (external rotation)? What's the difference in engagement?

@turntablesrockmyworld9315 7 месяцев назад

I use thumbs-up grip, it is not as awkward when pulling and is less stressful on wrist and provides greater external rotation.

@RobertWadlow292 3 года назад

I haven't seen them demonstrated in your video like this and with your grip before

@chrisrose323 2 месяца назад

I have a wierd tip. When I learned some armwrestling training I bought a cheap budo belt from a thrift store to do arm wrestling exercises. After a while I realised I could use it for all kind of exercises. Facepull is one of them. Instead of using versa grips and other stuff on the ropes, you just rotate it around your hand. With a budo belt you can change the way you pull by using long or short grip. I use it for triceps, forearms, facepulls, standing crunches and even stretching. Its like something from an infomercial 😂

@phdgkos47952 3 года назад

after being an amatuer work-out dude working in a few gyms and being an athlete... ive found that my favorite workouts are what i will call- the 100 rep series. choose 2-3 weighted lifts, and just focus on getting 100 total reps for each. focusing less on super heavy lifting, and focusing on weights that allow for 15-25 reps. so like say my goal is like 4 sets. set 1 and 2 are warm-up sets that hit 25 reps. then the 3rd set is the heavy set adding weight. then the remaining sets are my cool down sets to hit 100 total. that being said i am def an athlete first, and a wieghtlifter like 5th.

@henrikandersen3525 3 года назад

Mike, what is your opinion on taking a week completely off (some light cardio), instead of taking a deload week? Muscle loss and strength loss won't occur since it's just a week, so why not let the cns recover 100% and recover fully mentally as well?

@pt.is.education5747 3 года назад

Cns recovery is done in minutes to hours after your last workout. But we actually know pretty few about different recovery and fatigue mechanisms. If you don't want to train in a deload, don't train. If you do some cardio do it at a very low intensity. The problem with not training in a deload is that you lose practice. Neuromuscular adaptations and adaptations of your technique will suffer

@ianmontgomery9356 3 года назад

he incorporates active rest like this after blocks of mesocycles where we have already used deload weeks at the end of the others to get fuller recuperation and set us for the next training block

@jerzzau Год назад

Quick question, i think i perform this exercise without using momentum, but i will have to lean back with my body weight to keep the weight stack suspended, and throughout the movement i ensure there is no swinging involve. Does this form sound correct to you or am i going too heavy?

@jessicalloyd2330 Год назад

Ain't nothing wrong with angling your body to maintain position, just like a row and cable crossover. There is everything wrong with using the wrong muscles to heave a weight the target muscles are incapable of. If you feel it in your target muscle you're good, if you feel it elsewhere more you need to decide if you have, 1 a muscle weakness (spinal erectors are common) that make you unable to maintain form (neutral spine most often) as well as limited mobility in a joint. Or, 2. if you have too heavy of a weight for your target muscle to take over.

@MikeBarbell 3 года назад

If it helps you engage the target muscle, does not get you limited by grip and is not uncomfortable for your joints then go!

@mohammadadaileh6218 3 года назад

@plus12gaming 3 года назад

What about reverse grip? I've been doing face pulls at head height or higher, pulling so that my thumbs point behind me. My wrists don't feel comfortable doing them wit the grip you use in the video, but maybe I need to try again?

@jessicalloyd2330 Год назад

Nah fuck it do the athlean x face pull it's no big diff. I feel like I get a greater ROM for my scapula with my thumbs pointing back.also my thumbs pointing back make a great cue for the end of the rep vs my weirdly twisted wrist.

@scottttym 3 года назад

I use bands at home to do face pulls. I always use a shorter range of motion. If I let the full stretch at the bottom, then there is zero tension for too much of the rep, so I focus on the rear delt.

@chrisseal1467 3 года назад

I have experienced this also, I agree with sacrificing some ROM to maintain tension. With a band the only way to get the peak contraction is to pull to above your head, unless you have 2 bands or the ones with handles.

@scottttym 3 года назад

Or leave lots of slack in the band between your hands... Then the part of the band your actually pulling also has more tension.

@chrisseal1467 3 года назад

Yeah good shout, hadn’t thought of that.

@scottttym 3 года назад

Also works to get better ROM on tricep pull-downs

@@theevildead96 True, perhaps it was poorly phrased on my part. His commentary on pulling from that low was just targeting different muscles, but a lot of the issues he highlighted are made more complex by that pulling position.
