Prone I, Y, T

Step By Step Guide:

  1. Lay face-down on the ground and place your arms out straight ahead of you.

  2. Keep your arms straight and lift them up off of the ground straight out in front of you. Hold for a second, then lower them back down to the ground.

  3. Move your hands out to a “Y” position and repeat step 2.

  4. Move your hands out to a “T” position directly to the side of your shoulders and repeat step 2. This is one complete rep of the IYT exercise. Return to the I position to start your next rep.

Common Mistakes:

  1. Bending the elbows as you lift. This takes tension away from the muscles we are targeting and makes the exercise much easier and less effective. Keep those elbows straight in each position.
