Face pull dumbbell1/16/2024 ![]() ![]() The same applies to facepulls, if you want to use them to strengthen your upper back then I imagine scapula retraction is okay, if you want to use them to keep your shoulder healthy and get the "pump" I would limit scapula retraction. So in this case you would want scapula retraction. Now you can also do band pullaparts with the goal of practising upper back tightness which is useful prior to squats and bench. The purpose of this (I think) was using the band pullapart to improve should joint health. He said the foam roller gave feedback so that you could feel if you were retracting your scapula or not and that he wanted them done without scapula retraction. I used to do band pullaparts prior to bench and squating with a scapula retraction until I saw an Eric Cressey video about doing them with a foam roller down your spine while lying down. There seems to be a couple of ways of doing them. I think this may be similar to band pullaparts, I will use those as an example and explain what I've learnt about them and then come back to face pulls.
