Description: Seated, with the elbow flexed at 90 degrees close to the body, hold an anchored elastic band. Slowly rotate the forearm to bring the palm upward, controlling the resistance of the band until maximum supination.

Tips: Keep the elbow close to the body and avoid moving the shoulder. Perform the movement slowly to effectively engage the supinator muscles.
