What happend to the Wide Grip Rear Pulldowns?
OK, so I having finally decided to come out of my weight room in the basement and join one of these mega Gold's Gym. AND, I am wondering around today wanting to do Wide Grip Pulldowns behind the neck, and notice that every single pulldown station has a Warning or Danger sticker about not bringing the bar or handles behind your head?
The gym has about 15 different pulldown stations, half of them are hooked up to a cable crossover machine, the other half are either a cable system, or leverage and they all have this warning sticker.
When did Rear Pulldowns get banned in the gym? I have always like them because they seem to isolate the muscles better than Front Pulldowns and you can't cheat like you can with the front.
I must have watched over 50 different people hit those pulldown machines today as I worked out, and not a single one of them went behind the neck?
wide grip rear pulldowns.
not many people perform rear pulldowns due to being an unnatural movement.
puts way to much stress on rotator cuff. much better to perform front pulldowns.
