Single Arm Bodyweight Pulldowns

1. Start by lying on your stomach with your hands straight out in front of you.
2. Lift your feet and your arms slightly off the ground.
3. Leading with your elbows, pull your arms down to your sides. Your hands should come back to be in line with your head or your shoulders. We want to create at least a 90 degree angle in our elbows.
4. Now return one of your arms back to the outstretched position while keeping the other arm in the activated bent position.
5. After you have outstretched one arm, pull that same arm back to the activated bent position.
6. Repeat the action of stretching and pulling on the other side.
- Squeeze your back muscles (lats) at the peak of the movement. We are holding this activated position with one arm ass we move the other.
- Keep your core activated, specifically your lower back.
- When pulling, it helps to imagine pulling on something to help activate the correct muscles.
