The best way to counteract the imbalances you likely have in your pulling/pushing muscles is to incorporate some pulling exercises into your training!
Below, I’ll show you three pulling exercises I recommend using to strengthen the weaknesses you may have in your back, shoulders, and arms.
I demonstrate these exercises on the gymnastic rings, because the instability of the rings strengthens those muscles even more than performing these exercises on a stable apparatus, like a bar. However, if you don’t have a pair of rings, you can certainly perform these exercises on a bar (though it is recommended to perform the second exercise with rings, as you’ll see).
Pulling Exercise #1 – The Pulling Prep (Lat Activation Exercise)
This fundamental movement is the key to proper performance in all pulling exercises.
The pulling prep teaches you to start all of your pulls the right way, and once mastered becomes automatic and ingrained into your pulling.
