The Keiser X-Pulldown is an upper-body vertical pulling movement that we like to incorporate for individuals that don’t quite have full shoulder flexion and may not do well with chin-ups. The free-moving handle allows the capability to externally rotate the humerus to encourage better ball-on socket movement.
When utilizing the Keiser Functional Trainer, it gives us the opportunity to train power with real-time feedback of output.
Next time your shoulders are cranky with chin-ups, give the Keiser X-Pulldown a shot and see how it improves your pain.
