Instructions

Proper Position

  • Place a resistance band around your back, just below your shoulder blades.
  • Hold the ends of the band with your hands and position them on the floor, shoulder-width apart.
  • Adopt a plank position: body in a straight line (head, back, hips, legs) and core engaged.

Movement

  • Bend your elbows to slowly lower your body toward the floor until your chest is close to the ground, keeping the band stretched.
  • Push through your hands to return to the starting position, straightening your arms against the resistance of the band.
  • Ensure your body remains straight throughout the movement.
  • Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Breathing

  • Inhale as you lower yourself.
  • Exhale as you push back to the starting position.
