Technique

Setup

Anchor the band overhead. Stand facing it and grip both ends with elbows bent and pinned to your sides.

Movement

Press your hands down until your arms are fully extended, then let them rise back with control.

Form Tip

Only your forearms should move — keep elbows glued to your ribs.

Increase Difficulty

Kneel to increase the range, or slow the return to 3 seconds.

Decrease Difficulty

Grip higher on the band for less tension.
