The lateral cord squeeze will help you learn how to contract the strong muscles of your back that power your pull. This is less of a strength exercise and more of a learning tool to help you increase your awareness of how to use these muscles.
To perform this exercise, attach a stretch cord or elastic band to an immovable object. The band should be attached at approximately shoulder level or higher. Turn your body so the band is by your side. You should be far enough away from where the cord or band is attached so that you feel a fair amount of tension while in the final position. With straight arms, pull against the cord and bring your hands down to your hips. Hold that position for three to five seconds.
