http://www.TheBestWayToExercise.com features Joe Six-Pack in how NOT to perform pulldowns for the back and biceps muscles.

Behind-the-Neck Pulldowns can strain the neck, shoulder joint capsule, and the delicate rotator cuff muscles.

To learn THE BEST WAY TO EXERCISE, please click on the link and subscribe to my free newsletter on my website.

For all of the details on how to properly perform pulldowns and chin-ups, please view my other clips on my YouTube channel... StandFirm!!!

  • oh yeah and if you train for strength, doing negatives slowly may hinder your progress because it makes muscles sore, which is not super needed if you want strength

  • the externally rotating rotator cuffs are the muscle that specifically shortens when you put your arm like that, way to go fucker!

  • Joe knows squat: nice

  • Are you sick ?

  • "the externally rotating rotator cuff muscles are stretched"... ehh, correct me if im wrong, but if you externally rotate the humerus, you are stretching the INTERNALLY ROTATING rotator cuff muscles?

  • using your thumb makes your bicep do more work

  • idk i was taught by my weight lifting coach to go behind the neck...your not suppose to go crazy with momentum which is true because its suppose to be controlled... i've been doing behind the neck pull downs for 4 years and yet i haven't had any problems

  • I love those guys that pin to the bottom during the seated cable rows and have zero form

  • fucking lame boldi

  • use yoga in conjunction with strength training to find true strength.
