    Keeping your elbows slightly bent, slowly raise your arms out to the sides until they are parallel with the floor. Make sure to internally rotate your shoulder joints by bringing your shoulder blades together and rotating your forearms inward towards your torso.

    Extend your shoulder joint and elbow across your body until your arm is fully extended.
  • Lie on your back holding band loops with elbows resting on the floor.
    Press arms straight up until elbows extend without locking.
    Lower elbows back to floor under control, keeping tension throughout.
  • Lie on bench holding band handles with arms extended above chest.
    Lower arms out wide in a controlled arc, keeping slight bend in elbows.
