  2. 2

    Step into the band with both hands and bring your hands into the front rack position with elbows up.

  3. 3

    Step back to create tension in the band, allowing it to pull your arms slightly forward.

  4. 4

    Hold the stretch for 20-30 seconds, breathing deeply and relaxing into it.

  5. 5

    Carefully release the tension and step out of the band.
