1. Starting Position: - Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. - Hold one end of the resistance band in each hand. - Step on the center of the band with both feet, ensuring it is secure. - Hinge forward at the hips, keeping your back straight and your core engaged. Your torso should be at about a 45-degree angle to the ground. - Let your arms hang straight down, palms facing each other.
Movement:
2. Fly Movement: - As you inhale, raise your arms out to the side, keeping a slight bend in the elbows. - Focus on squeezing your shoulder blades together at the top of the movement. - Ensure your arms are parallel to the ground at the peak of the movement.
3. Return: - Exhale as you slowly lower your arms back to the starting position, maintaining control and tension in the band throughout the movement.
Tips:
- Keep your neck neutral and avoid looking up or down excessively. - Perform 2-3 sets of 10-15 repetitions, resting as needed between sets. - Focus on controlled movements rather than speed to ensure proper form and effectiveness.
