Kneeling serratus pushes with elastic is a strengthening exercise that targets the serratus anterior muscle, located on the sides of the rib cage. To perform this exercise, you will need an elastic band and a stable surface to kneel on. Begin by kneeling on the floor with the elastic band anchored under one knee. Hold the other end of the band with your hand and extend your arm straight out in front of you. Slowly push your arm forward, keeping your elbow straight and feeling the resistance of the band.
