🚨 Comments and tips

[wp_ad_camp_5]

  • Pull with your elbows, not with your biceps.
  • In order to target your posterior deltoids, your elbows and the angle of the cable must be perpendicular to your torso.
  • You can use a high cable or even a low cable provided you adjust the angle of your body so that your elbows and the angle of the cable are perpendicular to your torso.
  • You can hold the rope with the rubber ends either touching your thumbs or your little fingers.
  • Do not confuse the standing cable rear delt row with the cable face pull.
