Instructions
Preparation
- Hold dumbbell in one hand. Lie on mat with dumbbell in hand.
Position upper arm on mat close to body. Bend elbow approximately
90° with dumbbell held upright above elbow.
Execution
- Maintaining 90° bend in elbow, lower dumbbell toward
floor until slight stretch is felt in shoulder. Lift dumbbell
toward body by internally rotating shoulder until forearm is
vertical and repeat. Continue with opposite arm.
Comments
- Torso can lean back slightly allowing for fuller range of
motion at the bottom of movement. In which case, forearm does
not need to travel any closer than vertical toward body. Elbow
can be held with opposite hand for additional support.
