Standing upright with your arms shoulder-width apart, bend one arm (right) so that your hand is close to your shoulder (the back of your hand points away from your body), with your upper arm (elbow) pointing downwards and close to your body. With the hand of the bent training arm (right), grasp one end of the elasticated rubber band and place the other end around the shoulder (same side of the body). From this position, stretch the training arm (one-sided elbow extension) and bend back to the starting position.

Attention:
Do not arch your back (tense your stomach), the movement only takes place in the elbow joint (upper body and upper arm remain stable).

1 mini-band

Standing shoulder-width apart, the upper body is tilted forwards with a straight back (or in a slight stepping position, with the leg on which the weight is held further back), the weight (kettlebell or dumbbell) is held in the hand slightly below knee height (same side of the body) with the (left) arm hanging down, the weight is gripped in the upper grip so that the back of the hand points forwards in the direction of vision. Raise the shoulder of the playing arm (left) with the arm extended before bending the arm to bring the weight to the chest (elbow close to the body pointing backwards). During the movement, the arm is rotated outwards (back of the hand points to the side away from the body). Then, in the reverse sequence of movements, stretch the arm back to the starting position (internal rotation).

Attention:
Always keep your back straight (tense your core). The angle of your back and thighs should remain the same throughout the exercise. Pull your elbows back and up (stay close to your body). The first impulse when lifting the weight always comes from the shoulder.

Lighten:
More weight.

Harden:
Less weight.
