Description

Start by placing your chest on the ball with your knees on the floor. Hold the elastic band between your hands, then retract and lower your shoulders by bending your elbows, bringing your elbows close to your sides with the elastic under your chin. At this stage, your arms should be parallel to your torso. From this position, extend your arms forward, then bring your elbows back close to your body. Maintain tension in the elastic band during all repetitions.
