Begin by setting the cable machine or anchoring your resistance band at chest height.
Stand with your back to the anchor point, holding the handle in your working hand at chest level.
Engage your core and maintain a tall, upright posture. Step forward into a lunge with the opposite leg, and at the same time, press the handle forward in a controlled, punching motion.
As your arm reaches out, allow your shoulder blade to protract naturally—your shoulder should move slightly forward with slight rotation of your torso.
Maintain smooth coordination between the arm press and the lunge.
To return, push back through your front foot while bringing your arm back to the starting position at your chest.
Repeat the movement as prescribed by your physiotherapist.
