How to: Begin with the body held in a straight line from the head to the heels, holding the handles in an extended position in front of the chest with an overhand grip. Pull the handles overhead and slightly laterally to bring the body up until arms are parallel to the body. Slowly lower back to starting position.
Pro tips: The more parallel the body is to the ground in the starting position, the more difficult this exercise is. If a suspension exercise system is unavailable, this exercise can be performed face-down on a bench or on the floor.

How to: Attach bands to a sturdy object at shoulder-level, and hold the opposite ends in each hand. Stand back to put tension on the bands. Squeeze your shoulder blades together and row the bands to your shoulders with elbows flared out so your upper arms make a W shape. Hold for two seconds.

How to: For part one of this exercise—the snow angel—you will start by lying on your back. Engaging your core, lift your feet a few inches off the ground and raise your arms from your sides to over your head, as if you were making a snow angel. Then, keeping your feet together and toes pointed, raise both legs up, keeping them completely straight, while raising your upper body off the ground. Touch your hands to your toes. That’s one rep.
