FitCi
Step-by-step
- Hang from a pull-up bar at shoulder width with your arms fully extended
- Without bending your elbows, pull your shoulder blades down and back; your body will rise a few centimeters
- Hold this position for one to two seconds
- Slowly release your shoulder blades back to the starting hang
- Repeat the movement smoothly and under control
Coaching tip
Never bend your elbows; the entire movement is just your shoulder blades gliding down and up.
Caution
Skip this move or ask a professional first if you have pain or an injury in: shoulder. FitCi filters it out of your program automatically based on the injuries in your profile.
