Good Morning
Targets: Back, abs, and butt
-
Holding a dumbbell in each hand, stand with feet shoulder-width apart.
- Bend elbows to bring weights in front of shoulders, palms facing each other.
- Keeping legs straight and maintaining arm position throughout, press butt backward to fold slightly at hips; keep dumbbells as parallel to floor as possible.
- Return to standing. Do 10 reps.
Tip: Rather than fold over, push your butt back as far as you can. Really squeeze glutes to return to standing.
I think it's great if you can stand. I'm in a wheel chair and I still go the the gym at least 3 times a week none of the standing exercises I could not do. Try to think of something that I could actually do. I want to be in shape too. Just because I'm in a wheelchair does not mean I let myself go that would make things worse.
