  • Begin in either long sitting or kneeling on the reformer box, facing the shoulder rests, as guided by your physiotherapist.
  • Sit or kneel tall with your spine upright, shoulders relaxed, and core gently engaged.
  • Hold one strap in each hand with arms extended forward at shoulder height, palms facing up (supinated grip).
  • On an exhale, bend your elbows to curl your hands toward your shoulders, keeping the elbows lifted and stationary in line with your shoulders.
  • Avoid letting the elbows drop or move backward — the movement should come only from the elbow joint.
  • Pause briefly at the top of the curl, ensuring your posture remains upright and stable.
  • Slowly return to the starting position, controlling the movement against the spring tension.
  • Complete repetitions as prescribed by your physiotherapist.
