The thing with Face Pulls though is to remember that it's not meant to be done heavy. It's primarily a pre-hab/re-hab exercise. Just do higher reps and keep the form really good ;-)

Have a look about 3/4 of the way down this page!



Good call, I meant to suggest them as well but forgot because I'm a bit challenged. The thing I really like about face pulls is that as well as hitting your rear delts they're one of the few exercises that work your lower traps, which can only help your posture and make you look better all round (and improve your shoulder health, not that smackhead Weegie bodybuilders are supposed to care about that sort of thing).


:lol: I'm challenged too! I need to do these more often as they really help my shoulder and my delts get stronger....which I really need.

Never look back with regrets and think "what if" for that way madness lies. There are those that will envy you and try and undermine you. They are not worth your time.

Sack off Face Pulls and swap for Squat Cable Row. If you have a cable crossover station with adjustable height then set the height low so you're pulling from a low position into the body at around 30-45 degree's.
