Why this order
This session starts with heavy seated compound movements to engage the large muscles of the back while your energy is highest. We then transition to rope-based exercises that emphasize posture and metabolic stress before finishing with high-rep bicep burnout sets. This sequence minimizes accessory changes while progressively moving from multi-joint to isolation movements.

How heavy should the weight feel for these exercises?
Tonal will suggest weights based on your initial assessment, but for this fat loss goal, aim for a weight that feels challenging by the final two reps of every set.
Can I use the Barbell instead of Handles?
While the barbell is great for some rows, these handle and rope variations allow for a better range of motion and easier cable height adjustments for this fast-paced circuit.
What if I cannot complete the prescribed reps?
If you fatigue early, Tonal's Spotter mode will automatically reduce the weight so you can complete your set with perfect form.
How often should I perform this workout?
For best results in fat loss and muscle definition, aim to perform this pull session twice a week with at least forty-eight hours of rest between similar sessions.
