Seth E no but face pulls really won’t overtrain your muscles because we already dont train the ‘pull’ aspect of our body as much as the other muscle groups. Like think of face pulls as pushups, it’s a light exercise that you can do everyday
Hi Jeff, I am a (nearly) 69 year old man and have been doing face pulls per your suggestion for about 6 months. Yesterday I got a compliment from a stranger on my posture, which I attribute directly to your advice. I have had very painful rotator problems in the past but not anymore. Thank you!
I absolute love this channel. I am 51 and have been lifting since my freshman year of football. I have learned sooo much, and I get so much better workouts in now. Thank you so much Jeff.
These type of cable machines are the douche-magnet number 1 in my gym already. Most people flip their towels over it while doing something else or checking their phone for ages. On average they occupy this fuckin thing for like 20 minutes...Only 2 pairs of ropes in my gym too. I think I'd piss a lot of people off if I keep them for Jeff-style face pulls lol. Not to mention that one of the ropes will at all times be in use anyway. I should seriously upgrade to a better gym but it's cheap sooo....
Last year I had a shoulder injury that severely limited my range of motion in push workouts. I've added facepulls to the end of every workout to strengthen my shoulder muscles and it's really helped. Love your videos Jeff!!
Guy at the gym: Dude l need to use that rope. Me: No Jeff said use 2 ropes for Face Pulls. (UPDATE): I went from 2 ropes to using now a skipping rope. Always guaranteed because most of the people in my gym hate cardio 😂
brah, my thoughts exactly too. Chuze only got 2 of those, looks like time to get me my own. I got consistent with these face pulls because of Jeff but I didn't think I was doing them wrong, I pulled to my chin while squatting 😑
@@JoeKnott1993 Same. And only 6 benches for pressing that are ALWAYS full. Meanwhile there's like 2 dozen cardio machines that are seldom used. Cardio really is the killer of gains...
Thorasic injury caused muscle imbalances from neck to feet I've been taught so wrong by so many physical therapists. Now thanks to Jeff and these amazingly informative videos I'm making amazing progress thanks Jeff
Hi Jeff, I'm a female 62 and started working out again 9 months ago and have dropped 48 pounds and gained quite a bit of muscle. I love this face pull! I added it to my work out and felt like hamburger the next day but it upped my weight on my rowing after just 1 time (after I healed lol) and the weight on the face pulls too. It was really what I needed to finish off my shoulders. I really like the latest video on meal amounts of Protein, starchy carbs, and fibrous carbs. It fit right in with what I was doing anyways. Love all your videos, you and Jessie keep it coming plz. I'm feeling stronger and better all the time. Thanks Autumn.
Jeff will make ya strong. I watched his video about effort and explosiveness, I made muscles more sore with less weight after that. Intensity and focus are huge...
@Devon Nelson lol does he really have those fake accounts? It's unbelievable actually that he would need to do that shit after getting millions of subscribers and this genuine content.
I had done a bunch of drywall ceiling work on my house and my shoulders were shot for a year. Face pulls totally fixed the issue. I came back to this video just to say thank you!!!
Jeff, I know you must get countless comments like this, but I still need to tell you that you have essentially saved me. This recommendation has been fixing so many things that had been wrong with me, including a shoulder issue that I have had that physical therapy has attributed to a weak lower back. I've only been incorporating this for two weeks and the results are insane, I feel amazing! I wish I could meet you and shake your hand. You do incredible work and give out priceless information for free, you are a saint of fitness. I intend to invest in some of your products and potentially a program when I have the at home equipment someday to give back to the unbelievable fitness world that you have built. I cannot believe that someone like you exists, giving away for free what many charge for by the session. From the bottom of my heart thank you for what you do, I believe I am one of so many that has been able to benefit from the amazing work that you do.
I could not agree more, i fucking love this guy. His videos should be in every gym class ever! people out there goes to the gym to be healty but end up destrying their bodies. Before only the rly rich people had the oppertunity to hire someone as well educated, but Thanks to jeff everyone can. So blessed to find this UA-cam Chanel and so blessed that jeff do such an incredible Job for everyone to see. You can tell hes a good person and that he rly cares for u to do it right, mad respect❤️
This is seriously not a joke. The first day i knew it was real. 2 weeks and it's a gamechanger. It's like i can feel my spine/shoulder/neck getting into alignment. I ignore all the muscle name gobbledygook but whatever mysterious muscle this exercises was seriously deficient. I now reassess every single exercise and try to do my last two lightweight cooldown sets with external shoulder rotation. I forgive Jeff for all of the extremely personal attacks he makes against me with his shirtlessness.
Jeff, I continue to be impressed! This is the BEST exercise video I've ever seen. Not only that but I can see my posture improving after just a 4 weeks of doing these. THANK YOU for excellent content!
Added these to my workout.. Actually started doin these today for the 1st time. Came here to make sure my form is on point and make my corrections. Learned a shit ton in a few minutes. Will 100% continue these daily as he suggests. I'll try and check back in 30 days with my discovery. Thanks Jeff
Thanks for clarifying all this. I was sectioned last month because I was always pulling on my face. Now after some intervention I understand not to take things literally in life and I am ready to get back into society again.
Update: Just tried this RIGHT for the first time after seeing this video and what a difference. Thanks to these videos and watching my nutrition closely, I went from 215 lbs. to 175 lbs. with good tone and a soon to be six pack in three months. Thanks for the inspiration Jeff. Keep up the good work!
Okay Jeff, I'll buy another rope... *proceeds to grumble about how Jeff never uses 2 ropes in any of the thousands of other videos he does face pulls.*
Phone stays in the car when I'm at the gym. That's MY TIME do not disturb unless you're at the gym. Then disturb with caution. LOL We don't know the long term affects of cell/smart phones but it sure makes the public not notice things around them...
I am a grown-ass woman who likes to work out and your videos CRACK ME UP because I have the sense of humor of a 6th grade boy. And all your followers leave really funny comments too. I get a laugh AND terrific content! Thanks!
I am learning so much from your site... Jeff, you are 'Da'Man'! And yes, I've been doing face pulls all wrong (along with just about everyone else in my gym). The first time I followed your EASY instructions, I worked muscles in my back I didn't even know I had. Thanks for much for your well-explained, easy to understand instructions on ALL your videos, they are much appreciated!
I'm considering buying two for myself. If Jeff puts so much emphasis on them, I can't argue with him. EDIT: Guess who just found an extra long attachment? :D
Implemented that exercise to my workout for the first time yesterday, not knowing 100% how to do it properly, and then stopped because it didn't feel right (and must have looked stupid too). Today I googled the exercise and found your video. You are the G.O.A.T. Thanks for all the good stuff you are posting.
After watching this video and incorporating all of the finer details, my face pull went from 33 lbs on the cable machine to - drum roll, please - 7 lbs. The overhead trap raise is especially challenging when mindful of raising your arms vertically without letting them drift forward or compensating by leaning backward or arching your back excessively. What an eye opener!
This is hands down the best video to explain proper face pull. Its a great exercise for a strong back especially for horizontal pull. Pull ups and horizontal rows and face pulls are absolutely BEASTS for back development
I've really got behind the "10 sets of 1" concept with all my lifts and movements. It has been so helpful with developing solid form. I love your videos man. Face pulls!
@@Sean-uy3cu focus on every rep like its a single movement. rather than just going through the motion 10 times for a set boil it down to 1 rep 10 times, rather than 10 reps 1 time
@@Sean-uy3cu "10 sets of 1" means you're pushing yourself to your current limit with every set, as in you can't go heavier without sacrificing your form. Then you do these 10 times. Simply, it's making each rep count as opposed to counting the reps. One mistake many people make is they go easy on the first half of the set then go all out on the last few reps of the set. This is wrong. It should be heavy enough such that every single rep is "earned".
So glad to see this. I am a 59-year-old trainer who has been athletic my entire life. My client base ranges from athletes to the elderly… I have always had everybody do face pulls This has been a great refresher tutorial. Everybody can benefit from doing this exercise and i when done properly is crucial for correct posture. I have use this particularly for clients with Uppercross syndrome or elderly patients that have begun to develop kyphosis
*Summary:* *Best equipment to use:* When doing face pulls, when you use one rope, it doesnt give enough external rotation. To fix this put on 2 ropes just like at 3:29 *How high should the rope be:* put it high slightly above head, pull from high to low *Stance:* stand square, which is more athletic but you cant overload this stance because you are unbalanced. If you have bad balance, try the position at 5:45 *Grip:* you dont want to use overhand grips because this causes internal rotation of the shoulder. Instead grab it underhand like 6:25 with thumbs backwards. *line of pull:* Pull directly to your nose. Also, the hands must beat the elbow at the end of the motion like at 7:45 so there isn't internal rotation. *If you have trouble getting hands behind elbows:* Do the face pull like at 8:35 *Extra bonus muscle work:* Do face pull but raise arms up like at 9:08. This works the lower traps, to create stability of scapula. *Rep range:* Use enough weight for strength, but not enough to pull u forward *Frequency:* Do a couple sets of face pulls every workout, no matter what body part ur working
Thank you for your experience,and for your passion to want to share this with me. I'm a beat up 64 year old. Between my chiropractor and primary doctor, I have to stay fit to stay out of pain. Your expertise has helped me to get the best benefit from my daily routines. Again thank you
Thumbs up and a massive thank you for a genuine and thoroughly detailed explanation on how to do the face pull. I have asked so many on how to get this right, can't wait to try it with my resistance tubes!
I'm so glad I found your channel! I exercise a lot (half marathons) and do home strength training. I have bad posture and have been trying to correct it my whole life (rounded shoulders, anterior pelvis tilt with it). Face pulls daily, I'm on it now I've found this channel. Excited to get going. Going to watch more, you have such great tips and exercises. Plus.. its nice to watch muscly guys working out... 💪
Fair play Jeff, not only are your videos unbelievably insightful useful free information, but you always manage to make them incredibly entertaining as well! Best channel on this website 💪🏽💪🏽

That mentality is what gyms need more of.
He can, and he did.
Yes, he can... it takes a minute to perform the exercise...
thats lucky you guys have a rope. In my gym, its like finding lost spanish gold thats been discovered at the bottom of the ocean

*EXISTING IS KILLING YOUR GAINS*
I mean technically if all you do is just exist...your gains will die lol
Watching "...just ONE more..." training video on UA-cam instead of actually training is killing your gains.
pretty much
I am a grown-ass woman who likes to work out and your videos CRACK ME UP because I have the sense of humor of a 6th grade boy. And all your followers leave really funny comments too. I get a laugh AND terrific content! Thanks!
Me too! 😂👍🏿
YES lol the best comments of any channel ever!

... I literally did face pulls a couple of hours ago Jeff is a living algorithm at this point
Less than an hour here.
So..how was your form?were you killing your gainz?
Right?! I did them yesterday!
Same here! But I'm scared to use the Only 2 ropes together at the gym!!
It was the reverse for me. This is the one day of the week I don't do them.
Just started Jeffs workout:
10 sets of 1000 face pulls.
you mean 10 000 sets of 1 right?
@@SuperPizdolizac no 1 set of 10, 000 reps
100 sets of 100 face pulls is the only way to do it
Your posture erect that you your spinal turns into a C

Jeff: stop doing this! You're doing it wrong!
I am learning so much from your site... Jeff, you are 'Da'Man'! And yes, I've been doing face pulls all wrong (along with just about everyone else in my gym). The first time I followed your EASY instructions, I worked muscles in my back I didn't even know I had. Thanks for much for your well-explained, easy to understand instructions on ALL your videos, they are much appreciated!
In my gym its hard enough getting one rope, now Jeff wants me to use 2 at a time. My next session should be interesting.
I'm considering buying two for myself. If Jeff puts so much emphasis on them, I can't argue with him.
EDIT: Guess who just found an extra long attachment? :D
Use 2 lat pull down bars.

Lmfao 😂😂😂
He’s not wrong 😂
😂😂
Truest words of wisdom
@@Liquid-yj1ok Big facts
my hands are a length of a forearm away from my ellbows right now.
yeah. mine too.
😂
😂😂😂😂
Lmao
Thats what i thought too🤣
Me too! We're finally doing something right!
Implemented that exercise to my workout for the first time yesterday, not knowing 100% how to do it properly, and then stopped because it didn't feel right (and must have looked stupid too). Today I googled the exercise and found your video. You are the G.O.A.T. Thanks for all the good stuff you are posting.
After watching this video and incorporating all of the finer details, my face pull went from 33 lbs on the cable machine to - drum roll, please - 7 lbs.
The overhead trap raise is especially challenging when mindful of raising your arms vertically without letting them drift forward or compensating by leaning backward or arching your back excessively. What an eye opener!
Yeah, I'll probably have to lower mine a tad to keep proper form.
Starting Jeff's workout plan
1. 6000 facepulls
Jeff's tooth brush is connected to a cable machine so that he face-pulls to brush his teeth.
HAHAHAHAHA
😂😂😂
This is hands down the best video to explain proper face pull. Its a great exercise for a strong back especially for horizontal pull. Pull ups and horizontal rows and face pulls are absolutely BEASTS for back development

I've really got behind the "10 sets of 1" concept with all my lifts and movements. It has been so helpful with developing solid form. I love your videos man. Face pulls!
Can you please explain that too me man, sorry if he's been threw it im just interested
@@Sean-uy3cu focus on every rep like its a single movement. rather than just going through the motion 10 times for a set boil it down to 1 rep 10 times, rather than 10 reps 1 time
Agreed!
@@Sean-uy3cu "10 sets of 1" means you're pushing yourself to your current limit with every set, as in you can't go heavier without sacrificing your form. Then you do these 10 times.
Simply, it's making each rep count as opposed to counting the reps.
One mistake many people make is they go easy on the first half of the set then go all out on the last few reps of the set. This is wrong. It should be heavy enough such that every single rep is "earned".
@@joshhill8189 thanks mate makes sense
So glad to see this. I am a 59-year-old trainer who has been athletic my entire life. My client base ranges from athletes to the elderly… I have always had everybody do face pulls This has been a great refresher tutorial. Everybody can benefit from doing this exercise and i when done properly is crucial for correct posture. I have use this particularly for clients with Uppercross syndrome or elderly patients that have begun to develop kyphosis
Burning calories laughing with this comment section
full rang of motion right?
*Summary:*
*Best equipment to use:* When doing face pulls, when you use one rope, it doesnt give enough external rotation. To fix this put on 2 ropes just like at 3:29
*How high should the rope be:* put it high slightly above head, pull from high to low
*Stance:* stand square, which is more athletic but you cant overload this stance because you are unbalanced. If you have bad balance, try the position at 5:45
*Grip:* you dont want to use overhand grips because this causes internal rotation of the shoulder. Instead grab it underhand like 6:25 with thumbs backwards.
*line of pull:* Pull directly to your nose. Also, the hands must beat the elbow at the end of the motion like at 7:45 so there isn't internal rotation.
*If you have trouble getting hands behind elbows:* Do the face pull like at 8:35
*Extra bonus muscle work:* Do face pull but raise arms up like at 9:08. This works the lower traps, to create stability of scapula.
*Rep range:* Use enough weight for strength, but not enough to pull u forward
*Frequency:* Do a couple sets of face pulls every workout, no matter what body part ur working
Thanks Hamza, I had began to write my own short little summary, but yours is much more comprehensive! Thanks a lot buddy.

I can't say Jeff has a single useless video. He is the best. Thanks for everything man. All I have is by watching your videos. 👌👌👌👌
Thank you for your experience,and for your passion to want to share this with me. I'm a beat up 64 year old. Between my chiropractor and primary doctor, I have to stay fit to stay out of pain. Your expertise has helped me to get the best benefit from my daily routines. Again thank you
literally did my first face pulls today and did it all wrong, jeff stalking me
😂😂
Me too...
Me too wtf...
Shout out to all the people I see use two ropes tomorrow 🙋
I'm the only one in my gym that ever dose facepulls. Or at least that I've seen. Every one will look at me crazy using 2 ropes tomorrow lol
I already saw one! 🤷🏻♂️
Rope day everyday
Theres only one rope long enough in my gym for this... its gonna be a free for all
I saw 3 people doing it like this today 😂
Jeff, I left an abusive home at 17. You're the dad I never had.

I'm so glad I found your channel! I exercise a lot (half marathons) and do home strength training. I have bad posture and have been trying to correct it my whole life (rounded shoulders, anterior pelvis tilt with it). Face pulls daily, I'm on it now I've found this channel. Excited to get going. Going to watch more, you have such great tips and exercises. Plus.. its nice to watch muscly guys working out... 💪
when you think you do everything correct then you watch jeff videos (intro)
Haha. Yep
That's just what I was thinking. LOL
dude doesn't actually know how to do many things
Oh, no. Even the face pulls aren't safe 😱

WOW- the hand beats the elbow is something I missed. That was so helpful! Thanks, Jeff! love your videos.
great cue indeed!

Wow, I've been doing this right the whole time! That's a first
Same. I got super anxious, then I got super confident. And anxious again cuz I’m drunk af and that’s killing my ganiz
