Description
Get into a push-up position, arms extended and both legs supporting you. Without bending your elbows, push your upper back toward the ceiling as if you wanted to move your chest away from the floor, then slowly lower back down, letting your shoulder blades draw together. The movement should come mainly from the shoulders and scapulae, not from the elbows.
