Pull the Elastic Toward the Pockets

Description

Attach a resistance band to a sturdy support above you. Stand underneath it and hold one end in each hand. With your arms straight, pull the band down toward your pockets while contracting your back and arm muscles. Then slowly return to the starting position, controlling the movement. Breathe in as you raise your arms and breathe out as you pull the resistance band down. Repeat the exercise according to your physical therapist's instructions.
