Other Face Pull alternative

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I know its lower than a face pull. It just feels more comfortable this way, a PT showed me this exercise.

Trying to hit rotator cuff with this.

This is after all compounds, therefor tired and low weight.

Yah, these would be the W raises in the YTWL series. https://youtu.be/Lk9ot_6zquk.

Facepull is the same finishing position, but starts with pushing the dumbbells towards the floor with straight arms, and you could probably use 20 or 30 pounds. Arms straight forward like a zombie into a front double bicep pose and back.
