Band Y Raise

Stand with feet about shoulder-width apart and hold a resistance band with both hands. Keep your core tight and arms straight as you lift them up and out in a “Y” shape, raising toward overhead. Focus on controlled movement and squeezing your shoulder blades together at the top, then slowly return to the start. This variation strengthens shoulder and upper back muscles while improving posture and mobility.
