Exercise 1: Low Row
Low Row is a great if you're just starting out. This exercise strengthens the muscles between your shoulder blades and the back of your upper arms and shoulders.

*Take hold of each end of the band
*Turn your hands so that your palms face your sides
*Step back from the door to extend the tubes
*Raise your chest forwards
*Relax your shoulders
Action for Low Row
*Pull the handles back towards your body
*Breathe our as you pull back
*Keep both elbows close to your trunk
*Raise your chest forward as you pull back on the bands
*You should feel your shoulder blades move inwards as you pull back
Exercise 2: Wide Row
Wide Row is a more challenging exercise than low row.
This exercise also strengthens the muscles between your shoulder blades as well as the back of your shoulders and upper arms.
Setting Up
*Set up is the same as described for Exercise 1
*Raise your arms out to the sides away from your trunk always keeping your elbows lower than your shoulders to reduce the strain on your neck and shoulders.
Action for Wide Row
This exercise uses the same action outlined for exercise 1. however the upper arms are raised away from the sides of the body throughout.
*You should feel both shoulder blades should squeeze together as you pull on the bands.
*Your shoulder blades should move apart as you slowly release the bands
How Many Upper Back Exercises?
*Start out doing a comfortable number of exercises
*Aim to build up to doing 8-12 exercises in a row (1 set)
*Ideally aim for 3 sets of back exercises with a rest between each set
Try to do your strength exercises on 2 or 3 alternate days of the week
Tips for Avoiding Injury
*Keep your neck and shoulders relaxed
*Keep your knees soft
*Keep your resistance
*Breathe our with the effort of pulling back
*Progress your exercises slowly (number and resistance)
👌A.🌹0:39較簡單的第一式
一開始取適量距離於繫繩處，
1. 用意識做出把頭頸向天花板方向延伸，並保持上身正直，
2. 兩手將把手拉向#骨盆上緣(此高度也等高度於繫繩點)。
3. 拉動時要注意#肚子不要向前凸(即收緊核心、小腹肌肉發力)、也#不要聳肩。
4. 拉著把手向骨盆上緣時，#兩肩胛骨彼此相向夾擠，以#強化肩胛內收肌群。
5. 再緩緩讓彈力繩將手拉回起始位置。
########################
B.🌹進階2:08 強化中背的#中下斜方肌，目的在使#下沉且內收兩側肩胛骨的肌群有力，以維持肩胛骨在正確位置，幫助#改善圓肩駝背體態 。
1. 把兩上臂自人體解剖面的額狀面起算0度的前引30度、彎肘，並使在此起始位置彈力帶有適當緊繃，雙手握把手#全程掌面朝地面，來拉彈繩向後，
2. 並#保持前臂是平行於地面作動。
3. 一邊向後拉，一邊將兩肩胛骨內側相向在中背處靠近夾緊。

Which weight band should i use, i usually use three band together
Michelle is awesome 😊👍
Please make video on- Correction of knocked knees, please..
Should the band be at around waist level or higher, for each exercise?
Kindly make a video on open chest exercises also

Can resistance bands help with flabby arms?
@chris oatts resistance bands can help tone the arm muscles when used for specific arm exercises along with weight reduction as required.
I had a recent l4 l5 disc propulsion prb..and now i am feeling upper back pain what should i do now?how can be the upper back pain removed?
what is the weight recommendation for the resistance band?
Jess start with what you can manage comfortably, if you're a beginner get the light resistance band otherwise your neck and shoulders can become sore if the band is too tight to start with, cheers

I have an anterior pelvic tilt & hunched back
Can I do these exercises?
Just what I need to squeeze those "wings" together.
Mam i have degerative disc disease L4,L5 and S1 can i do this excersice.
These exercises target more of your upper mid back you should do exercises that target your lower back and strengthen your lower core
Hurts my lower back
She said to slightly bend your knees to avoid that. Hope that helps?
😍😍😍😃
What about breathing?
Avi breathe out with the effort which is the pull back, breathe in with the release
Stomach or chest breath? Thanks.
Try for deep breaths with weight training, not everyone can manage stomach breath however it's a good goal if you can do it
