How to Do Banded Face Pulls

  1. Attach a resistance band at face height. Grab the band with an overhand grip and take a step or two backward.
  2. With you elbows held high, pull the band toward your face by moving your upper arms straight out to the sides while rotating your forearms upward.
  3. Return to the starting position in a controlled manner by allowing the band to move forward again.
  4. Repeat for reps.

Commentary

This exercise is an alternative to traditional face pulls and can be a great option if you’re training somewhere without access to a cable machine.
