Instructions
1. Attach a resistance band to a low point behind the incline bench.
2. Sit on an incline bench set at around a 45-degree angle, with your back firmly against the pad.
3. Grab the handles of the band with each hand and press your arms up over your chest, similar to the top position of an incline dumbbell press.
4. Keep your elbows slightly bent and locked in this fixed position throughout the exercise.
5. Lower your arms out to the sides in a wide arc until you feel a stretch on your chest. Inhale as you perform this movement.
6. Bring the handles back together in an arc, as if hugging a big tree. The movement should be done in a controlled manner while exhaling.
7. Focus on using your chest to pull the bands back together and squeeze your chest muscles as you reach the top of the movement.
8. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
Make sure to choose a resistance band that allows you to perform the exercise with proper form while still challenging your muscles. Avoid allowing the band to pull your arms back too quickly, risking shoulder injury.
