Exercise Description

The one arm band cross body chest press builds chest strength while working each side separately. It fixes muscle imbalances and gives you a great chest pump anywhere.

How To

1. Anchor your resistance band at chest height to a sturdy object like a door or pole. 2. Grab the handle with one hand and step away from the anchor point until you feel tension in the band. 3. Start with your arm extended out to the side, creating a straight line from the anchor to your hand. 4. Press the band across your body toward the opposite side, squeezing your chest as you bring your hand to the center of your body. 5. Slowly return to the starting position and repeat for your desired reps before switching to the other arm.

Form Tips

• Keep your core tight throughout the entire one arm band cross body chest press movement • Focus on squeezing your chest muscles as you press the band across your body • Don't let the band snap back - control the return movement • Keep your shoulders down and back to protect your shoulder joint during the one arm band cross body chest press

Common Mistakes

• Letting the band control the movement instead of controlling it yourself during the one arm band cross body chest press • Standing too close to the anchor point, which reduces tension and makes the exercise less effective • Rotating your torso too much instead of keeping your core stable throughout the one arm band cross body chest press
