Cable Seated Face Pull (With Rope)
The rope face pull taken seated, which leaves no lean or leg drive to cheat the finish.
How to do it
Setup
Seated tall facing the pulley, rope at face height, a rope end in each hand, arms long.
Steps
- Pull the rope toward the eyes, elbows high.
- Spread the ends wide beside the head.
- Straighten the arms under control.
Common mistakes
Rounding forward as the rope returns: sit tall, chest up. Rocking back to finish: the torso stays still; lighter stack. Elbows dropping: keep them level with the shoulders.
Breathing
Exhale on the pull, inhale on the return.
