The Y is a great exercise for shoulders, posture, and fighting the effects of sitting at a desk all day.
Today, let’s start with no dumbbells, and try to make bodyweight effective here. Aim to maintain great form at all times, and you’ll feel it. Do 10-15 reps.
To do the Y:
- hinge at the hips with back neutral and straight
- extend arms with palms facing behind you
- bend at the elbows as if you are elbowing the ceiling
- rotate your arms up into a “touchdown” position
- extend your arms into a “Y shape
- bend at the elbows, rotate arms, and straight elbows to return to the start position
