Description

Attach an elastic band at one end in a low position near the ground. Lie on your stomach, facing the band, and grip it with both hands. Make sure to keep your chest on the ground and lift your head slightly while looking down. Then, bring both arms in front of you, lifting them off the ground while maintaining the grip on the band. Pull it back with both arms and hold this position as long as necessary before returning to the starting position. Be sure to keep the movement controlled and not arch your back during the exercise.
