It involves using an elastic band or tubing to perform a pulling motion in a diagonal direction, similar to the movement of raising your arms to the side at a 45-degree angle. This exercise primarily works the deltoid muscles, which are responsible for shoulder abduction and rotation. It also engages the rotator cuff muscles, which help stabilize the shoulder joint. Elastic scaption exercises can improve shoulder strength, stability, and range of motion. They are commonly used in physical therapy and rehabilitation programs, as well as in general fitness routines.
