Upper Back Workout With Resistance Band

Video Transcript

We are going to work out upper body, our back as well as our triceps. The great thing about working larger muscle groups is that you also end up incorporating your triceps and your biceps because the movement has to be supported by your triceps and your biceps. Okay we want to start again with holding our tummy in, our glutes in and our spine is in proper alignment because our head is straight ahead and we want to start the movement by pulling our shoulder blades back. So this is my arms relaxed and I am initiating the movement from my shoulder blades by squeezing my shoulder blades back and I am going to pull and hold it for a count of 2 and release it. So again the movement starts with your core, holding your tummy in making sure your spine is perfectly aligned and your spine is perfectly aligned if your head is straight and you want to make sure that your shoulder blades are squeezed together. Okay tummy in, glutes are tucked in as well. So we are going to start the movement by pulling our shoulder blades back, squeeze, hold for count of 2 and release it. Beginners you want to start with between 6 and 8 reps, intermediate to advanced 8 to 10 and for advanced you could do 10, actually do 15 to 20. Do 3 to 4 sits. The movement initially starts from your core so you want to make sure that your stomach is engaged at all times to support your lower back and to support your upper body. It is great practice for your posture. We automatically engage your core. Once you tighten your abs and tighten your tummy, it automatically forces your body and actually it works. It contracts. When you are contracting, you are actually working your abs as well as by contracting them.
