Cable Standing Supinated Face Pull (With Rope)
The standing rope face pull with the palms turned UP on the rope; the underhand grip rolls the upper arms out as the hands finish beside the ears.
How to do it
Setup
Split stance facing a rope set at head height, palms up under its ends, arms long.
Steps
- Row the rope toward the eyes with the palms still facing up.
- Finish with the fists beside the ears, forearms pointing up.
- Straighten the arms slowly, the grip unchanged.
Common mistakes
Palms rolling down mid-pull: the underhand grip is the point; keep it. Elbows dropping below the shoulders: the pull slides into a row; lift them. Swaying back to drag the stack in: stay upright; take less weight.
Breathing
Exhale on the pull, inhale on the return.
