Learn set-up, movements and points to remember below:
Set Up
Anchor: Secure the band(s) to the door with the door anchor at the top of the door
Bands: Thread the band(s) through the anchor and attach each end of the band(s) to an outer ring of the bar.
Body Positioning: Grip the bar with each hand towards the outside of the bar. Sit close to the door, facing the door, with your knees bent. Keep your back straight, head straight, chest up, and shoulders forward. Your arms should be straight and pointed up towards the door anchor. Lean back slightly so that your body is not straight up and down.
Movement
Pull the bar back until your hands are right across your chest. Return to the starting position (controlling the resistance). Repeat.
Points To Remember
1. Grip the bar loosely (just tight enough not to let go).
2. Squeeze your shoulder blades together as you pull the handles back to the ending position.
