Form Cues

  • Step on the middle of a resistance band with both feet about hip-width apart

  • Hold each end of the band with your hands at your sides, palms facing inward

  • Depress your shoulders down and away from your ears before starting

  • With a slight bend in the elbows, raise both arms out to the sides until they reach shoulder height

  • Pause briefly at the top, then lower your arms back down slowly, resisting the band tension

  • Keep your torso still throughout — avoid swinging or using momentum

  • Choose a band tension that allows you to complete the movement with full control
