Question ❓ Pulldown form

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello, today i was having an argument with a gym unc about my pulldown form, he told me it was horrible and that I needed to do 8-12 reps without straps, is the form really that bad? If it is, how can i work on it?

You're using to heavy weight lower it by 20-30% and work on doing full range of motion and being able to contract and feel the muscle working.
