Does anybody know of a good substitute exercise for Pull-Throughs? I'm doing a program that calls for me to do them, but I don't like them. The routine calls for bent-leg pull-throughs on the pulley machine, not straight leg ones. Thanks.

Just do pull-throughs though. Really. They're not that bad. Yeah, the cable touches your crotch, but if you hold it right it's not invasively so. It's a really good movement that I just got into recently.
ok. i dont think the people in my gym will appreciate the ballsweat on their equipment, but i'll do it anyway.

I get weird and offensive looks all the time but fuck them. It's making me better.squanto said:

What is a pull through?
I like doing them with med balls for endurance, amazing how much those fucking things can hurt.
Nah, but that is a good idea. I do them about 2 feet in front of a wall so the ball won't roll back too far.
damn, all i have is big balls. u think those will work?

Usually when I do a pull through I keep my lower body more stationary, analogous to a SLDL. This adds emphasis to the lower back, which is usually what I shoot for with pull throughs. Not that that version isn't applicable, but if he's doing the routine I think he is then it is calling for the SL pull-through.
Is it that posture routine you were telling me about?

posture routine? Is that question for me?
Yea, there was a clip of a guy doing a straight legged pull through also. i just normally don't do anything with straight legs (mine don't straighten...lol) so i posted that one.

Sounds like something we need to fix. We meaning you.

Nah, for squanto. He's a friend of mine. He told me he was thinking about doing some routine he stumbled across on T-Nation that is supposed to help with kyphosis and such.
I don't straighten mine fully either. I leave a slight break in my knees, but don't change the angle of flexion throughout.
It's not because of that, have you tried a different deoderant?Rocco32 said:

I think he may be doing it as part of a hamstring routine (or perhaps entire leg routine) from T-Nation.

Could be, but like I said squanto is a friend of mine, and I'm basing my guess on something he told me when we were chillin'.
