Half-Kneeling Diagonal Chop With Elastic Band

Description

Position yourself in a half-kneeling stance with an elastic band fixed above your head to the side, while the knee furthest from the band anchor remains on the ground. For added comfort, you can place a cushion or towel under your knee. Firmly hold the band with your palms facing down, keeping the rest of your body still. Then, perform a diagonal chopping motion downwards away from the anchor, engaging only your arms. Slowly return to the starting position and repeat the movement. Make sure not to lean forward or backward, tilt from side to side, or rotate your body.
