Eric Roberts breaks down three face pull mistakes: don't start by squeezing your shoulder blades, pull the rope to nose level not above it, and stagger your feet if you're off-balance. Initiate the movement with your pinky finger and drive your elbows out before the final scapular squeeze.
If you are doing face pulls, whether you have a rope or 2 handles or whatever you have, don't make these 3 mistakes. Number 1, do not start the movement by squeezing your shoulder blades together. Start with pulling with your pinky, driving your elbows out, and then at the very end you can think about squeezing your shoulder blades together. Number 2, do not go up too high. You want to pull right to your nose level. And number 3, If you find yourself getting off balance, just simply stagger your feet and then pull from there. Open up.
