    How to: Resistance Band Punch

    1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and step on the resistance band.
    2. Hold the handles or ends of the band close to your chest.
    3. Extend your arms forward in a punching motion while keeping your elbows slightly bent.
    4. Return to the starting position and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

    Common Mistakes

    • Overextending the arms during the punch.
    • Using momentum rather than controlled strength.
    • Neglecting posture during the exercise.

    Modifications

    • Perform the exercise seated for better stability.
    • Use lighter resistance bands to reduce intensity.

    Tips

    • Ensure a stable stance by keeping your feet shoulder-width apart.
    • Maintain a straight back to avoid any strain while punching.
    • Focus on controlled movement for effective resistance application.
