Band Standing Rear Delt Row
The standing rear delt row against a band with handles fixed high on a rack; the hands finish at the top of the chest, below a face pull.
How to do it
Setup
Split stance facing a rack, a band with handles fixed above head height, arms reaching up and forward.
Steps
- Pull the handles down to the top of the chest, elbows spreading wide.
- Keep the upper arms level with the shoulders at the finish.
- Let the band draw the arms up and forward slowly.
Common mistakes
Elbows dropping as the band stretches: that turns it into a pulldown; keep them level with the shoulders. Rocking the hips back to help: the split stance stays still. Letting the band snap the arms back: return as slowly as you pulled.
Breathing
Exhale on the pull, inhale on the return.
