Starting position

How to perform it

Move the arms through a controlled arc with a slight bend in the elbows. Open or close only as far as you can without forcing the front of the shoulder. Prioritize control over speed. Maintain useful tension through the range and deliberately reset the starting position before the next repetition.

Tips

Do not turn the final repetitions into fast or partial movements. Aim to load chest and shoulders without sacrificing position; at beginner level, progress control first and then add load, repetitions or complexity.
