Standing Elbow Lift Pulse

Standing Pulsing Elbow Lift (Chest)

Starting Position:
1. Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart.
2. Bring your elbows to shoulder height, keeping your arms bent at a 90-degree angle. Your hands should be near your chest, palms facing forward.
3. Engage your core and maintain a neutral spine.

Movement Instructions:
1. From the starting position, gently lift your elbows slightly upwards while keeping them bent. Focus on using your chest and shoulder muscles.
2. Pulse upward in small increments for a count of 2-3 seconds, keeping your elbows raised.
3. Slowly return to the starting position over the same count of 2-3 seconds.
4. Repeat this pulsing motion for 10-15 reps, focusing on controlled movements.
5. Maintain a steady breath throughout the exercise, inhaling as you lift and exhaling as you lower.

Tips:
- Keep your shoulders relaxed and away from your ears to avoid tension.
- Ensure your wrists remain neutral; no bending at the wrists should occur.
- Modify the height of your elbow lift for comfort and ensure you're working within your range of motion.
