Technique

Setup

Anchor the band behind you at chest height (or wrap it around your upper back). Hold an end in each hand at chest level, elbows bent.

Movement

Press both hands forward until your arms are extended, then return with control.

Form Tip

Stagger your stance for balance and keep your core braced — do not let your lower back arch.

Increase Difficulty

Step forward to increase band stretch, or press one arm at a time.

Decrease Difficulty

Step back toward the anchor to reduce tension.
