Banded shoulder Abd/chest flys with roller
- Lie on your back with a foam roller positioned lengthways along your spine, supporting your head and pelvis
- Bend your knees and place your feet flat on the floor for stability
- Hold a resistance band in both hands, arms extended above your chest with slight tension
- Gently engage your core to keep your ribs down and avoid arching your lower back
- With elbows slightly bent, slowly lower your arms out to the sides in a wide arc (like a chest fly)
- Allow your shoulders to open while maintaining control and light tension in the band
- Only move as far as comfortable without forcing your arms to the floor
- Bring your arms back together above your chest in a controlled manner
- Keep your neck relaxed and shoulders away from your ears
- Complete repetitions as prescribed by your physiotherapist
