Straight Arm Pullback - Stretch Cord Exercise

Start this exercise with the stretch cord wrapped around a railing, and your arms out in front of you. There should be tension in the cord. Now pull your arms back towards you while keeping them straight.















You will finish the movement in this position and then slowly move your arms back to the starting position. It is very important to stress the reverse movement. My high school athletes will typically perform this exercise continuously for 45 seconds before taking 15 seconds rest. We generally perform three sets.
