Standing Supinated Face Pull (With Towels)
A bodyweight face pull on two towels looped over a wall bar, palms up; leaning back further makes it harder.
How to do it
Setup
Two towels looped over a wall bar at head height, one in each hand, palms up, body leaning back in a straight line.
Steps
- Pull the body up to the towels, elbows high and wide.
- Finish upright with the fists beside the ears.
- Lower back to long arms, the body still one line.
Common mistakes
Hips folding as you lean back: brace so the body moves as one board. Elbows dropping to the ribs: that is a row; keep them high. Palms turning down as you rise: keep them up the whole way.
Breathing
Exhale on the pull, inhale on the way down.
