Resistance-Band Kneeling Chest Press

Starting Position:

1. Kneel on the floor with your knees hip-width apart.

2. Hold one end of the resistance band in each hand.

3. Anchor the other end of the band behind your back or to a sturdy object at chest level.

4. Position your hands at chest level with elbows bent and tucked slightly in towards your body.

Movement:

1. Engage your core to keep your body stable.

2. Press both hands forward, extending your arms fully in front of you while keeping your elbows slightly bent.

3. Squeeze your chest muscles as you push your hands forward, ensuring the movement is controlled.

4. Hold the extended position for a moment, feeling the tension in your chest.

5. Slowly return your hands to the starting position, keeping control as you go back to the chest level.

Tips:

• Keep your back straight and avoid leaning forward.

• Ensure that the band is secure before starting.

• Breathe out as you press forward and breathe in as you return to the starting position.

• Adjust the tension of the band by either changing its length or using bands of different resistance levels.

Repetitions:
Start with 8-12 repetitions and gradually increase as you get stronger.
