Pull Up Press

Exercise Overview

The pull up press is a dynamic stability exercise for the shoulder. This can be completed with a pullup assist band or exercise band. Start by stepping on the middle of the band to anchor it beneath your feet. Hold the band with each hand and raise both arms to about chest height. While keeping your forearms parallel with the floor press your hands forwards until your elbow is straight. Pull the band back until your hands are back to your chest to complete a repetition.
