This movement can be done in sitting, standing, or supine lying (usually on a bench). Arms are out at your sides, around shoulder height. Keep your ribs down, tightening your core and supporting your spine. Contract your pec muscles (the front of your chest) to bring your arms forward toward the middle of your body. Return to the start with the same control – do not let them snap back (or drop down if you’re on your back) as this could cause further injury.
