What weight do you guys do face pulls? I have no sense of what's considered weak or strong on this lift.

How even do you do this lift?
Like what the frick is form?
He’s smol.
>the subtle bulge at the dick root
A E S T H E T I C
2.5pl8s 5x5
nobody does facepulls correctly so the estatting really means frick all
the whole stack, which is only 47.5kg and do 3x15. Full rom (scap pro+ret), 1 sec hold at top
I just use bands to do them, further I step out the harder they get
Faut que je fasse gaffe à ne pas me tromper de fil j'ai failli engueuler un type pour avoir parlé anglais
We accept your surrender
I dont know french and I wont bother translating a meme language.
I don't do that gymcel shit.
Usually 180 lbs, 4 x 15
do them from knee level to the face, you'll use like 25% of your regular working weight
I have never tried this but I’ll give it a shot and compare how I feel the day after.
Knee level rounds your shoulders and restricts how far back you can go. Just do them properly at face level. I see morons compensating for too much weight every time I go to the gym. A guy yesterday had 35kg on and was barely moving his arms, swinging his whole body back and pushing with his legs. The main reason I want a home gym is so I don't have to see these morons every time I work out.
it's an accessory lift you do in 10-20 rep ranges, weight doesn't matter you just progress it like everything else without letting the form become too bullshit
Machine says 55lbs
This is a dumb thread because no one here knows about pulley ratios. To answer your question, lower than 99% of the people at my gum but for 25 reps x 4 sets, done with proper form (external rotation lead with elbows not hands) cooks the rear delts. None of this leaning back with overhand grip bullshit
>pulley ratios
Are the machines not set up so it's 1:1? I.e. the force of exertion equals the weight + some friction?
Free weight master race so idk
Nope. You have to count how many pulleys it goes through and even then they all feel different even when the ratios are equated. I do free weights too but cables are based as well. If you go to certain gyms they will have like 4:1 to make normies feel good and then on top of that people will lean back and 1/4 ROM with overhand grip so its like all momentum and maybe a bit of biceps. This is not an exercise where you need to progressively overload with more weight every time. Rear delts can be hard to hit if you don’t know how and are a small often underdeveloped muscle
I have to lean on a 45 degree angle to do face pulls without pulling myself towards the cable machine is that normal
30 lbs for a few sets then down to 20
I aim for 16 reps
I use 35kg for around 15 reps. But i think most people try to do these standing up which is moronic
I’m at 65 pounds for 12 reps right now but I’m currently rebuilding my strength. I used to do 75x12. I do them slow with what feels like good form I can really feel them in my rear delts the next couple of days.
