Resistance Band Advent Calendar Challenge

Day 16/24 

One again for shoulders (purple card), which is great for my rowing. Also at all levels! Even better!  And no need for a door jamb or a bed post. Pretty great all around!

10 REPETITIONS

Thanks CBDB I’m clearly not used to doing that with my arms under tension!😣 I found it quite tough but I did it 💪👍

Yeah, I find we runners don’t usually use our arms that much. I found that my arm strength really improved with rowing and yoga, though. Will see how I get on later on, I tend to do these in the evening. Well done for doing them in the morning.

I've got left behind 😂 so I've just caught up with the last 3 days.I only did 5 of these with my left arm as my shoulder didn't appreciate it, 10 with the right though.

Well done! A mighty band workout, it sounds like. Individually they don’t sound like much, but by the time I get to the tenth repetition of each, I can feel it! Sounds like you did that three times over!

👏👏👏👏👏

I found this surprisingly challenging, which probably means I need to do it regularly! I did one set with a medium Theraband - in both directions - and then another half with a light Theraband, which is definitely the weight I'll use next time.

yeah, I started medium, did 5 each side, than switched to easy band and did another two sets of 10, one with hands upwards one with hands downwards.
