Face pulls are one of the best corrective exercises to help fix poor posture and shoulder dysfunction. They help strengthen the chronically weak muscles in our upper body that get stretched out all day as we sit in a slumped position at the computer or driving our cars.
For Cable Face Pulls - start by setting up a rope attachment on a cable in a high position, or if you’re training at home you can anchor a band to something high.
Grab the ends of the rope attachment with your thumbs pointing backwards.
Keep your elbows down below your shoulder. You don’t want to raise them to the level of your shoulder.
Then you turn the hands slightly and pull. By turning and rotating out you’re getting the external rotation of the shoulder to hit the rotator cuff which never gets worked in most conventional training programs.
