Extension and flexion of the arms while standing

Individual work

Stand shoulder-width apart in the centre of the elastic band, knees slightly bent and upper body tilted forwards, arms straight and hanging downwards, grasp one end of the elastic band with each hand, elbows close to the body backwards/upwards (pull shoulder blades together; pull hands towards chest) and return to starting position.

Attention:
Keep your upper body stable, do not arch your back (tighten your stomach).

Lighten:
Choose a rubber band with less resistance.

Harden:
Choose a rubber band with more resistance.
