Resistance band
How to do it
- Anchor a band at chest height behind you and hold a handle in each hand with your arms open wide.
- Step forward until the band is taut and keep a soft bend in your elbows.
- Sweep your hands together in front of your chest in a wide arc.
- Open your arms back out under control until you feel a stretch across your chest.
Coaching cues
- Keep the elbow angle fixed so your chest does the work instead of your triceps.
- Hold the squeeze for a second at the front of every rep.
