Rack up serious back gains with rack pulls.
The rack pull is basically a deadlift with a really short range of motion. It works the whole back, the posterior chain (hamstrings and glutes), as well as the forearms. It's basically the second phase of the deadlift and because you aren't lifting from the floor, it takes the quads out of the equation allowing the posterior chain to do the work. This is a great lift for developing serious back thickness.
