Instructions
1. Attach resistance bands to a low point on a band attachment or cable machine frame.
2. Stand in the middle of the bands with your back facing the attachment point.
3. Grasp the handles with a neutral grip and step forward into a staggered stance for stability.
4. Start with your hands slightly in front of you, arms extended at chest height, with tension on the bands.
5. Keeping a slight bend in your elbows, pull the bands forward and together while squeezing your chest muscles.
6. Your hands should come together in front of you, approximately at lower-chest height.
7. Pause at the peak contraction for a moment.
8. Slowly return your arms back to the starting position while still keeping tension on the bands.
9. Repeat the motion for the desired number of repetitions and sets.
Note: Maintain control throughout the exercise, avoiding any sort of jerky movements. Ensure that the movement targets the chest by not allowing the shoulders to do most of the work. Adjust the resistance by using bands of different thicknesses or by stepping further away from the attachment point to increase tension.
