Stand with your feet a hips width apart and with your knees soft.
Hold one end of a resistance band in both hands, elbows bent close to your chest.
The other end should be securely attached to one side.
Gather up some tension into the band.
Keep your body upright, and steadily move your hands directly overhead, straightening your elbows.
The band will pull and try to bend your body around.
Control your position with your trunk muscles and resist the pull.
Hold this position for as long as advised.
Then, control the movement as you bend your arms back to the starting position and relax.
