Welcome! Really hope it helps

Thanks for this video. My PT had given me this exercise and I had done it once with her and had a picture, but when I got home I wasn't sure I remembered exactly how to do it. The picture wasn't enough. This was a big help.

[@RobTrainSystems]

So glad it helped!!!

Mike Robertson and Eric Cressey are the O.G.s when it comes to fitness/rehab/prehab.

Thanks! A scoliosis coach had recommended it for my daughter, but couldn't remember how to do it.

Welcome!

There are ways to “screw” this exercise up. First, What I found is to grab with the outside hand first to allow a 50-50 grip. Second, feet underneath hips NOT shoulders, which allows core muscles to engage. Absolutely Agree with breath out and navel tucked. Third, every time hand come back to return, retract the shoulder blades from a positive neutral position. And last, it’s a core thing not a chest, soo keep your hands moving in-line with abs and NOT chest height.... but yes keep a lighter weight....

I use this a few times a week. I'd like to think it's contributed to me having less backpain.

[@RobTrainSystems]

Love it! It's definitely an awesome exercise

[@bakerzac22]

do you alternate grip at all..... meaning one set holding left hand then switching to right hand?

[@kbamoroso]

How can I do this at home? Will a band work around a pole? suggestions?

[@RobTrainSystems]

Yes I'd use a band - sometimes I'll set it up down load and wrap it around a bed post or something big/heavy that won't move

[@mariojeanjacques7907]

Hi! I guess we should train the other side too?

[@fitwithsonia]

Great video! Thank you :)

[@RobTrainSystems]

Thank you - appreciate it!!!

[@rickwanzel2897]

Can u use bands for thus exercise

[@RobTrainSystems]

Of course!

[@BobWallace-rc6xd]

Do you need to do this on both sides, i.e., turning the body around and doing it on the other side?

[@RobTrainSystems]

Yes

[@andyhickey5451]

How often and what other exercises to do with this

[@RobTrainSystems]

I generally program them 1x/week

[@cherihausmann]

It doesn't seem like it would do much.

[@RobTrainSystems]

Give it a shot - I promise it works quite well!
