Smith machine high pulls from bottom of rack

[irish_2003]

A year and half ago I was in car wreck...I now have 6 vertebrae in neck and lumbar with stenosis on inside of spinal column, degenerative disk disease, and arthritis ...none is service connected lol...

Just started implementing Smith machine high pulls and what a difference they're making in my trap and back work with virtually no additional stress on my spine from upper lats to traps

Be careful of your shoulders.

Yeah I'm only using 25s on each side and focusing on the squeeze...I do it last on back day...kinda a finisher...leaving the gym with pumped traps and looking bigger for it at the gas station after lifting lol
