1 - Attach a resistance band to a sturdy anchor point at approximately face height.
2 - Stand facing the anchor point and grasp both ends of the band with an overhand grip, thumbs pointing toward you.
3 - Step back until there is tension in the band, and stand with your feet shoulder-width apart for a stable base.
4 - With your elbows raised to shoulder height and slightly above, pull the band toward your face by retracting your shoulder blades and externally rotating your shoulders.
5 - Pull until your hands are level with your ears and your elbows are flared out to the sides, squeezing your rear deltoids and upper back at peak contraction.
6 - Slowly return the band to the starting position in a controlled manner, maintaining tension throughout.
