"Hi this is Rod Zervakos, I.S.S.A. certified personal trainer on behalf of Expert Village. We're working on our back muscles right now, we've already done the lat pull down. We've already done some upright rows. What we're going to do right now is a pull over from the back so I'm going to lay my back on the bench. The weight's going to be overhead and we're going to pull with both arms, and come straight forward. This is going to work the broad part of the back; excellent exercise. So I'm going to take a dumbbell here. Obviously in reality we're going to use more weight than this but this one's very important and it's good core exercise to keep your hips up, get the weight and the hands like this; take it back as far as you can and then power it forward, take it back over; power it forward and again this is going to work the broad part of your back, excellent exercise. When you're done, more than likely you're going to drop the weight because it's going to be a lot heavier than eight pounds but the; but the, the main thing here is that you keep a nice controlled movement from over the top working the back."
