Sling Training Armübung | |
Starting Position Start facing the point of suspension. One hand holds the handle of the Rotate in front of the chest. The arm is bent about 90° at the elbow, the upper arm stays close to the body. The PT stands sideways to the suspension and keeps the rope under tension. |
Movement Pull the handle down with your arm stretched. The PT is yielding the force by lifting his arm to the side. By leading his arm back to the starting position, he pulls the trainee back as well. |
Hint The further the arm is pulled down, the more the latissimus dorsi is involved in this movement. |
