The Workout
Start with this as your primary movement. Warm up with 2 lighter sets first.
Form cues
- Anchor the band at face height on a door, pole, or rack.
- Grip the band with both hands and step back until there is tension.
- Pull the band toward your face with elbows high and wide.
Finish strong — take the last set close to failure.
Form cues
- Hold the band with one hand, elbow bent at 90 degrees and pinned to your side.
- Rotate your forearm outward against the band resistance.
- Keep your elbow glued to your side throughout the movement.
Why This Workout Works
This workout is built around the principles of endurance training. Use lighter loads (40-60% 1RM) with high reps. Minimize rest between sets to challenge your cardiovascular system. Circuit training and supersets are particularly effective. Focus on maintaining form even as fatigue accumulates.
Training Parameters
- Rep Range: 15-25 reps — designed for sustained muscular effort
- Rest Periods: 30-45 seconds — short rest to maximize calorie burn
- Sets Per Exercise: 2-3 sets — optimized for endurance
Shoulders Training Tips
- *Most lifters over-train the front delt and neglect the rear delt — prioritize face pulls and reverse flyes.
- *Lateral raises work best with lighter weight and strict form — no swinging.
- *Press overhead with a slight forward lean to keep the bar path over your center of gravity.
