Rack pull: how to do it

1 of 3

Bar on the supports below your knees

  1. Starting position

    Stand hip-width in front of a bar on rack supports just below your knees and grip it just outside your legs.

  2. The movement

    Hinge at your hips, push the floor away and extend your hips until you stand tall, then lower the bar with control to the supports.

Most common mistake

Don't round your back or lean back at the top, brace your core and stand tall once your hips are extended.
