The decline barbell pullover builds a massive back and chest while improving your ribcage flexibility. It hits your lats hard while giving your chest a deep stretch.
1. Set up a decline bench at 30-45 degrees and grab a barbell with both hands, arms extended above your chest. 2. Keep your arms slightly bent and slowly lower the decline barbell pullover behind your head in a wide arc. 3. Feel the stretch in your lats and chest as the bar goes back - control the movement. 4. Pull the barbell back over your chest using the same arc path, squeezing your lats. 5. Complete your reps with the decline barbell pullover, keeping tension throughout the entire movement.
• Keep your core tight throughout the decline barbell pullover to protect your lower back from overarching. • Don't bend your elbows too much - keep them slightly bent but locked in position. • Control the weight on the way down - don't let gravity take over during the decline barbell pullover. • Keep your shoulders pulled down and back to engage your lats properly.
• Using too much weight and losing control of the decline barbell pullover, which can hurt your shoulders. • Bending your elbows too much, turning it into a tricep extension instead of a pullover. • Moving too fast and bouncing at the bottom - the decline barbell pullover needs smooth, controlled movement.
