Attach the band to a sturdy anchor point above your head. Stand facing the anchor point with your feet shoulder-width apart. Grasp the band with an underhand grip, hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Step back to create tension in the band, keeping your arms fully extended. Engage your core and squeeze your shoulder blades together. Pull the band down towards your chest, leading with your elbows. Pause for a moment at the bottom of the movement, feeling the contraction in your lats. Slowly release the tension in the band and return to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
