Description

Lie on your back with one arm resting on a light support, and your hand open facing upwards, palm towards the ceiling. Use your other hand to apply the end of a stick to the hand of the arm you wish to work on, then push to extend your elbow until it reaches its maximum extension. Hold this position for the indicated time, then release the pressure with the stick. Slightly bend the elbow, then repeat the exercise to the maximum elbow extension.
