Very underrated exercise. I especially like it with higher reps for warming up to bench, press, rows etc.

It really do work. I literally just got back from gym doing this. I feel like I have wings now.

One of the best (if not the best) showing for how to do an exercise I have ever watched on You Tube.

I've always stuck clear of this exercise no matter the variation Because no matter how hard I tried I wasn't getting the feeling I was remotely using my last and just couldn't get it right. FINALLY after this video with the rope variation I've got it! The skiing analogy really helped. Thanks so much mate!!
-
Thanks a lot, honestly. The way you explained how to incorporate the movement into a training routine towards the end of the video was truly helpful for me.
