Stretch: The Wicked Chicken Wing

With all this exciting Rubberbanditz news (like the Open Sky store and our new Green Page), we took a break from our discussion about the triceps. I think it’s about time we finished it up with a stretch, don’t you?

In case you missed the previous posts, here is what we covered:

Tips on tricep exercising

Exercise: Tricep pushdown

Wicked Chicken Wing

This move stretches your triceps and shoulders.

Grasp one band behind your back in both hands with one elbow pointing upward and the other pointing downward.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Slowly work your hands together.

If you pull the band up or down, you should feel a stretch in your shoulders or triceps, respectively.

  1. I Love this stretch. Did it a lot when I was recovering from a frozen shoulder. I also teach this to my students. It’s great for seniors too – we ease into it. Helps them with their posture.

  2. Glad to hear it! And that’s totally right about posture – it’s one of those stretches where you can just feel yourself moving into good posture as you set up.
