Key metric: Repetitions

Average reps per set*: 18

Description: Setup: Stand on an exercise band with your feet shoulder-width apart, ensuring there is tension in the band at arm's length. Grasp the handles using a pronated (palms facing your thighs) grip, slightly less than shoulder-width apart. Rest the handles on top of your thighs, with your arms fully extended but slightly bent at the elbows. Keep your back straight. Starting Position: Ensure your torso is stationary and your core is engaged. This is your starting position. Lift: Exhale and use your side shoulders to lift the handles. Keep the handles close to your body as you lift. Continue to lift the handles until they are nearly touching your chin. Tip: Make sure your elbows are driving the motion and are always higher than your forearms. Pause: Pause for a second at the top of the movement. Lower: Inhale and slowly lower the handles back down to the starting position. Repeat: Repeat the movement for the recommended number of repetitions.
