Pullovers

Too much movement you'll be gassed pretty fast

Only started doing pullovers recently, but I noticed it really helps my comically flat upper chest beef up against my fat muscle titties.
A+ exercise for this alone imo.

Nice sandals, fag.

My question: do you do them like pic related, or do them perpendicular to the bench with your upper back on the bench? I think there's an example of it on exrx.com, makes you work a lot more of your core

>>41999935
Pic related is way more comfortable

Good for the serratus

Yeah, it's not the most natural feeling exercise but once you get the mind muscle connection down you'll learn to love it. Feels great.

>>41999686

I do pullovers solely for the serratus work. The other muscles it hits are just a bonus.

>>41999686

make sure you squeeze the fuck out of your pecs at the peak of the lift.

I do them perpendicular to the bunch and I feel the core working hard
>>41999749
If you feel it in your chest your doing plain pull overs. The bent arm variant will place more work (if not all the work) on the lats. I prefer the bent arm variant since I feel I'd risk to fuck up the rotator cuffs if something slips otherwise

spoken like a true dyel

This exercise worries me cuz what if I drop the dumbbell on me.

>>41999686

Also one of my favorites lately. I try to not hold on to the bench with my legs, even sticking my legs in the air a bit, which works the core a lot, as well. But it's tradeoff because the core then becomes quite tired, possibly before the back.

use an ez bar

>legs in air to eliminate leg drive
absolutely barbaric
>the core is weaker than my lats
one more reason to work it out

>>41999758

Fuck, beat me to it.
