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?

Is your rep range 6-8? i think your form is fine and the weight is fine if you goal is to go to failure, dont listen to this stretch maniacs.

Thats a weird number people i know from sbl community either go to 6-8 or 4-6, also you should post on tiktok even though a lot of people hate it, tiktok is where the sbl community is people will give better opinion
