Banded Face Pull

1. Set up a light band attached to a stable surface at about chin height. 2. Take hold of the band in either hand using an overhand grip, with your palms facing the floor and your thumbs facing each other. 3. With your arms straight, step back far enough from the band that there is some light tension in the band. 4. Keeping your arms outstretched, put one foot in front of the other, and bend the knees slightly. Maintain this staggered stance throughout the movement to help your balance. 5. Pull your knuckles back and let your elbows guide the motion. Keep your arms up so your knuckles are roughly the level of your ears. 6. Hold the end position briefly, giving the muscles in your shoulders and upper back a quick squeeze. 7. Return your hands to the starting position.",
