Resistance Band External Rotation
The elbow-at-the-side external rotation against a band anchored beside you at waist height; the band pulls hardest at the end of the turn.
How to do it
Setup
Standing side-on to the anchor, the band in the far hand, elbow at the side and bent to 90°, forearm across the belly.
Steps
- Turn the forearm out, keeping the elbow against the side.
- Hold the outer point for a beat.
- Let the band bring the forearm back across slowly.
Common mistakes
Elbow sliding forward or out: keep it pressed to the ribs. Leaning away from the anchor: stand tall and square. Band too strong to finish the turn: step closer or use a lighter one.
Breathing
Exhale rotating out, inhale returning.
