I don't really feel taller, but I have a lot of aches in my lower back hip area.. Sitting til I got my new chair at work hurt... Back spasms started after I got the new chair it wouldn't go down as far as my last one did. I finally have my desk lifted 2 inches so now everything is good.

Murph- I have been using the weights attached to the cables and pullies and use the rope with balls at the end. The motion it's self is fine, but I need to work on that last little pump when you get to the bottom of the motion and pull to the sides. It catches my forearm muscles a bit right there and my forearms get tired before my triceps. Then at the end of the set I am not fully finishing the motion. So I give myself a few seconds at Rep ten to take a deep breath readjust my self and tell myself to finish the motion.

knock that weight to 25lbs so that can create a smooth motion that will allow to to target your tri's and not your forearms it's about smooth flow with the exercise not the huff and grunt and when your doing it correctly your tri's will burn and tighten up.then you know you targeted that musclr correctly Darling Cable Puller.

I don't grunt and the motion is smooth at 50lbs.. I have been watching lexfitness on YouTube and while I was there I tried leaning forward ever so slightly and it made it easier to make the outward motion at the end

The first day there was a guy there grunting super loud.. Startled me the first time it happened.. I almost laughed.. And the trainer looked over at him like she was tiffed and just said 'I know' and rolled her eyes lol

No not you doing the huff and grunt per say, some people will lift heavier weight than what's needed to work that area and they'll strain and huff or grunt but not really working that area correctly and end up with a shorter set.
