Instructions
Preparation
Stand between lever handles to sides. Squat down with feet flat on floor and grasp upper handles to sides. Stand upright by extending hips and knees to full extension.
Execution
Elevate shoulders as high as possible. Lower and repeat.
Comments
Since this movement becomes more difficult as full shoulder elevation is achieved, height criteria for shoulder elevation may be needed. For example, raising shoulders until slope of shoulders becomes horizontal may be considered adequate depending upon individual body structure and range of motion with lighter weight.
