How to Do
How to Do Rope Pullover
The rope pullover should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the rope pullover.
Beginning
Beginning Rope Pullover
1. Attach a triceps rope handle to the cable station carriage's pulley. Adjust the carriage to a position near the machine's upper third. Your exact position will be determined by your height.
2. After that, choose the level of resistance you want: A beginning weight of 10 to 15 pounds is ideal. Feel free to raise the weight as you get more familiar with the action.
Movement
Rope Pullover Movement
1. Grab the rope and walk back about a foot from the machine, facing the pulley. Standing with a modest bend in your hips, knees, and elbows is a good way to start.
2. Exhale and draw the rope down to your thighs with your elbows pushed back. Make sure your shoulders are relaxed and your back is flat. This brings us to the end of one rep.
