How to Do

  • To start, get in a seated position and grab the handles with a neutral grip.
  • Extend your elbows and press the handles outward.
  • Slowly revert to the starting position.
  • Repeat for the desired number of reps.

Exercise Tips

  • To ensure the tension, keep your elbows slightly away from being completely locked out.
  • Do not let your lower back arch.
  • Make sure you keep looking ahead and not on your sides as it can lead to cervical injuries.
