VARIATIONS

These modifications are great if balance or standing is an issue. The one with the resistance band offers variety to your workout.

SEATED

In step 1, sit on a chair and place your feet flat on the floor. Continue with the remaining steps.

WITH A WALL

1. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and your back flat against a wall. Hold a weight in each hand and relax your arms at your sides.

2. Extend your arms toward the ceiling and slightly bend your elbows.

3. Slowly lower your arms to form 90-degree angles with your arms until the weights align with your ears. Pause, then extend your arms toward the ceiling. Repeat this step 8 to 10 times.

WITH A RESISTANCE BAND

1. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. Hold a resistance band taut across your chest with your hands.

2. Raise your arms until your hands align with your shoulders. Slightly bend your elbows.

3. Slowly pull the band toward the sides of your shoulders. Pause, then lower the band to your chest. Repeat these last two steps 8 to 10 times.
