- Hold the band with the hand that is closest to the band, keeping the elbow bent at 90 degrees and close to the body, keeping the resistance band stretched.
- Move your hand inside your body to the opposite elbow, holding your working elbow still. When you can't move on, take a break and return to the starting position.
Tips
- Do not add extra and unnecessary tension. The goal is to improve your range of motion.
