Description

Sit on a chair with your arms relaxed at your sides. Hold the ends of an elastic band in your hands and attach the other end to an object in front of you. Rotate your arms so that your palms are facing forward, thereby opening up your chest. You can even aim to point your thumbs backward. Bring your shoulder blades together, tuck in your chin, and hold this position for the recommended duration.
