Check this section each week for a new featured resistance training exercise. All resistance band exercises should be performed slowly and under control. Slowly increase the tension as you perform the exercise. If you want to make the exercise more difficult, simply shorten the length of the resistance band.
Instructions
1. Sit flat on the floor, with your legs straight and your feet out in front.
2. Loop the resistance band around the soles of your feet and cross the band in front of you; holding onto an end in each hand.
3. In the starting position, your arms will be straight in front of you.
4. Bend your elbows and pull back until your hand meets your chest.
5. Return to the starting position.
