Resistance Band Upright Row
Welcome to your Workout of the Week, March 11! This month we are highlighting Ophthalmology, Point West. This month’s workout will focus on resistance band exercise to build and tone your muscles!
Kasey Siters, Vision Services Assistant II, will demonstrate these exercises. She has over 18 years of experience in Ophthalmology and she loves to exercise. She walks 6-9 miles each day, lifts weights, and performs reformer Pilates at home and mobility exercises. Because she has had multiple joint surgeries, exercise is therefore a non-negotiable to keep herself healthy and in-motion. The eye services department typically promotes good health with walking, yoga, and sharing exercise methods as well as different stretches. Many of the employees also walk together on their lunch breaks.
Exercise: Resistance Band Upright Row
How to perform: Place your right foot over the band. Inhale, bend your elbows and pull up to the chin. Brace your core and avoid any wobbling or shaking. Exhale, slowly lower the band back to starting position.
Duration: Repeat for 10 repetitions.
