1. Kneeling Cable Pullover
The kneeling cable pullover (sometimes referred to as the “kneeling straight-arm cable pullover”) is almost identical to the regular standing cable pullover. The only difference is that you’re kneeling, not standing during the exercise, which some people find offers better support.
2. Dumbbell Pullover
The dumbbell pullover is a good alternative to the cable pullover if you don’t have access to a cable machine (if you train at home or while traveling, for example). Bear in mind, however, the cable pullover has a significantly longer range of motion than the dumbbell variation, which likely makes it superior for training your lats.
3. Machine Pullover
A downside to the cable pullover is that controlling the exercise can get tricky when the weights become heavy. The pullover machine is a helpful workaround in this scenario, as it provides extra stability and makes lifting heavy weights through a full range of motion safer and more practical.
