How to: Resistance Band Pullover

Exercise Families:Shoulder Adduction

Equipment:Recovery Band, Bench

Trainer:Kelsey Wells

1. Place a bench vertically behind you and loop a recovery band around the base. Lie on your back on the floor in front the bench and plant your feet on the floor hip-width apart with knees bent. Holding each end of the band in a neutral grip (palms facing inwards), extend your elbows directly above your head, ensuring that your hands are together. This is your starting position*. *It is important that there is some tension in the band when in this position. If there isn’t, you will need to place your hands further down the band.
2. Inhale. Exhale. Ensuring your arms remain straight, pull the end of the band towards your upper legs.
3. Inhale. Ensuring your arms remain straight, raise your arms to return to the starting position. Repeat for the specified number of repetitions.
