Topic description

Stand upright with your shoulders shoulder-width apart, your right arm bent so that your hand is next to your chest (same side of your body - the back of your hand points away from your body) and your elbow is close to your body. An elasticated band is placed around the shoulder and held in place with the hand of the training arm (right). From this position, extend the arm forwards to chest height, rotating the arm so that the back of the hand is pointing upwards in the end position. Then bend the arm to bring it back to the starting position.

Attention:
The movement only takes place in the arm and shoulder (upper body remains stable and upright, no leaning forwards or backwards).

Lighten:
Choose an elastic band with less resistance.

Harden:
Choose an elastic band with greater resistance.

Material

1 mini-band
