Have I Been Teaching Face Pulls Wrong shorts

We recently had someone ask about proper technique when doing one of my favorite exercises: face pulls. Specifically, they wondered if they should point their thumbs backwards rather than in (towards their head) to create more external rotation. While pointing your thumbs back can be a good reminder to keep your shoulders properly engaged ( back and down ), it doesn't actually create more external rotation because you're simply rotating your forearm or wrist. • Here's the video in reference (although we feature face pulls in many of our videos): • 12 Lower Trap Exercises for Climbers ... • Links to website, social media, t-shirts, and more: https://linktr.ee/hoopersbeta • // MORE INFO // • For more content like this as well as in-depth blog writeups and links to research articles, go here: https://www.hoopersbeta.com/ • // PRIVATE PT CONSULTS // • Want an in-person or e-consult with Jason?
