Movements

L’s - Bent Over

Starting Position

  • Stand hinged over at the waist with your hips back and your knees slightly bent.

Procedure

  • Keeping your back flat and your chest up, glide your shoulder blades back and down, and then lift your elbows toward the ceiling as you bend them to 90 degrees.
  • As your elbows reach shoulder height, rotate your forearms upward until the backs of your hands face the ceiling.
  • Reverse this pattern back to the starting position and repeat for the prescribed number of repetitions.

Coaching Keys

  • Initiate the movement with your shoulder blades, not your arms.

You Should Feel It

  • Working your shoulders and upper and lower back.
