Technique
Setup
Anchor the band high. Stand facing it, hinge slightly at the hips, and hold both ends with arms extended in front at shoulder height.
Movement
With straight arms, sweep your hands down to your thighs in an arc, squeezing your lats. Return with control.
Form Tip
Keep a micro-bend in the elbows and feel the pull along the sides of your back, not your arms.
Increase Difficulty
Step back for more tension or pause 2 seconds at your thighs.
Decrease Difficulty
Step toward the anchor.
