Instructions

1. Set up your suspension trainer to hang at about waist height.

2. Lie on the floor beneath the suspension trainer and grab the handles with an overhand grip. Your arms should be fully extended above your chest and your body should be in a straight line from heels to head.

3. Plant your heels on the ground, with your feet together or slightly apart, and brace your core to prevent your hips from sagging.

4. Pull your shoulder blades back and down, then pull your chest up towards the handles by driving your elbows down and back. Your body should remain rigid and move as one unit.

5. Once your chest reaches the handles or your elbows are in line with your torso, pause for a moment, squeezing your shoulder blades at the top of the movement.

6. Slowly lower yourself back to the starting position with arms fully extended and shoulder blades protracted.

7. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Tips: - Keep your neck neutral and avoid craning your head forward. - Adjust the difficulty by changing your body's angle; the closer you are to standing, the easier the exercise becomes, and the closer you are to horizontal, the harder it becomes. - Make sure to maintain a straight line in your body without allowing your hips to sag or rise up. - Control the movement throughout the descent to ensure that you're working the muscles appropriately and not relying on momentum.
