How to do the Band Face Pull
- Secure the middle of the resistance band to a sturdy anchor point at head height. Stand facing the anchor point with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding one handle of the band in each hand with your arms extended straight in front of you, palms facing down.
- Pull the handles towards your face, bending your elbows and flaring them out to the sides until your hands are at your face sides.
- Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the end of the movement, keeping your upper arms parallel to the floor.
- Slowly extend your arms back to the starting position with control, maintaining tension in the band. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Form tips
- Ensure the resistance band is securely anchored to avoid slipping.
- Exhale as you pull the band towards your face and inhale as you return to the starting position.
- Maintain a slight bend in your knees for better balance and support.
