i dont know what it stands for, and i'm too lazy to do a search currently

I had to get really crazy with exercises and techniques to finally come up with something that hit the lateral head hard. This rope extension can only be done with lighter weight and very healthy shoulders. It is more about rotating the shoulder back as it is extending the lower armout to get the full effect. You will feel it on the first set though if you do it right. It's a behind the back, thumbs up rope pressdown-and-out-and back.

Hmm..looks good bro. You just bend the elbows and bring your hands to mid back then press back out again?

You also have to roll the shoulders back.Somehow, that aligns the lateral head to be maximally flexed.

That looks like almost as much fun as Spytech's behind-the-back straight bar pressdowns. You need like 2 people just to be able to get the weight into a manageable position.

Push downs with the Vbar turned up side down so the your actually doing more of a tricep pull down. And always squeeze your shoulder blades together.
