Band Pull-Apart

Exercise Instructions

  • Grab a resistance band with about a shoulder-width grip. Different resistance bands have different amounts of tension, so you may have to adjust your hands closer or wider based on how strong the band is.
  • The band should not have too much slack in it if any.
  • Hold the band out in front of your face with your elbows slightly bent.
  • From this position, pull the band apart, and then slowly bring the band back to the starting position. Don’t let the band pull you back in. Have control.
  • Focus on using your rear deltoids. Your elbows should remain up and slightly bent throughout the movement, don’t let them drop.
