Starting Position: Stand straight up with your legs shoulder width apart. Fold the exercise band in half and hold both handles in your left hand. Position this arm straight out in front of you with your elbow slightly bent. Hold the middle of the band in your other hand and position your arm in a "V" shape, with your elbow pointing back and out to the side.

  2. 2 Slowly return your arm to starting position.
  3. 3 Repeat this exercise until you have completed all repetitions for the set, then switch arms and repeat motions.
