Laid back Side Raise

Lie on your back with the band centrally placed around your feet, with your hands grasping each of the handles.

START

FINISH

Keeping your back and head firmly on the floor, smoothly pull the bands up until there inline with your shoulders, having a slight bend in your arms.

Hold in the upper phase for 2 - 3 seconds, prior to returning back to your starting position, then repeating for desired amount of reps.

Care should be taken to keep your feet pointing away from you to prevent the band slipping off under tension.
