- Start by standing between the two anchored bands with your feet shoulder-width apart and the bands positioned at a high point.
- Grasp the ends of each band with your hands, keeping your palms facing each other.
- Keeping your arms slightly bent and your back straight, slowly pull the bands away from your body until your arms are extended straight out to the sides. Hold for a second, then slowly release back to the starting position. Repeat for desired reps.
- Stand tall holding two plates at your side.
- Lateral raise the plates to your side and continue until the plates are pointed at the ceiling.
- Let your shoulder joint naturally rotate. At the bottom you should have a neutral or overhand grip. By the time the plates are overhead, your palms should be facing forward.
- With plates in either hand, bend your knees with your feet slightly bowed out. Hinge forward with a flat back.
- Maintain an overhand grip and internally rotated shoulders.
- Raise your arms backward toward the ceiling while maintaining a light band in your elbows.
- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and grip two plates in each hand at your sides.
- Keeping your arms straight, raise the plates out to your sides until they are in line with your shoulders.
- Lower the plates back to your sides with control. Repeat for desired number of reps.
