Description

Sit in a seated position with your legs extended. Place a round elastic band around your wrists and hold two weights. Bend your elbows at a 90-degree angle while spreading your hands apart, maintaining tension in the elastic band. Make sure the elastic band is taut at this stage and your elbows are in contact with your ribs. While maintaining this tension, slowly lift your arms until they are extended above your head. Then return to the starting position with your elbows close to your body and forearms parallel. Finally, release the tension in the elastic band.
