Horizontal Abduction

Description

Lie face down on the table with a weight in each hand. Place your arms at your sides, elbows bent at 90°, with the weights directed towards the ground. Start by lifting both arms off the table simultaneously while keeping your elbows bent. Once your arms are lifted from the table, straighten your elbows without changing the orientation of your hands, which remain turned towards the ground. Then return to the starting position with bent elbows, and lower your arms back onto the table in a controlled manner.
