Exercise with the rubber band
For this exercise, we will use the so-called fitness elastic, an excellent workout without weights. It is a very versatile tool and also useful for exercises for the biceps to be done without dumbbells. To perform this exercise, you will need to bend your knees and sit on your heels, keeping your back straight without stiffening your shoulders.
Then put the elastic under your left knee (so that it stays locked) and grab the two ends with your left hand. From this position you will have to do the classic bending movement of the arm (curl)which is usually done with weights and dumbbells, bringing the hand to the height of the left shoulder. During the movement, the elbow must remain close to the body. At the end of the repetitions on the left arm, reverse the position of the elastic and perform the same exercise with the right arm.
