Internal Rotation
Set the Handle up in channel grip position. Hold your humerus in abduction (to 90
°
) and your
elbow bent to 90
°
. Allow your arm to rotate to the rear. Hold the Handle with thumb side up
and the tubing projecting backward from the channel at the pinky side of the Handle. This is
the starting point. The tubing should be secured from a position behind of the handle at about head
height (i.e. secure it in a door with the attachment device). The tubing should have some tension in
it at this position. Rotate your arm to the front (internally rotate). Be sure to keep your humerus in
90
°
abduction and your elbow bent to 90
°
. Allow your arm to return to starting position and repeat
for the recommended number of repetitions and sets. Note: The unique channel feature of the
Handle allows for the moment arm to be increased, thereby increasing the effective tension and the
effective range of motion.
External Rotation
Set the Handle up in channel grip position. Hold your humerus in abduction (to 90
°
) and
your elbow bent to 90
°
. Allow your arm to rotate to the front. Hold the Handle with thumb
side up and the tubing projecting forward from the channel at the thumb side of the Handle.
This is the starting point. The tubing should be secured from a position in front of the handle at about
head height (i.e. secure it in a door with the attachment device). The tubing should have some tension
in it at this position. Rotate your arm back (externally rotate). Be sure to keep your humerus in 90
°
abduction and your elbow bent to 90
°
. Allow your arm to return to starting position and repeat for
the recommended number of repetitions and sets. Note: The unique channel feature of the
Handle allows for the moment arm to be increased, thereby increasing the effective tension and the
effective range of motion.
Internal Rotation
Set the Handle up in channel grip position. Hold your upper arm at your side (with a roll
between your body and humerus) and your elbow bent to 90°. Allow your arm to rotate to the side.
Hold the Handle with palm up and the tubing projecting across your body from the channel
at the pinky side of the Handle. This is the starting point. The tubing should be secured from
a position to your side, and slightly above elbow level (i.e. secure it in a door with the attachment
device). The tubing should have some tension in it at this position. Rotate your arm inwards, across
your body (internally rotate). Be sure to keep your humerus at your side and your elbow bent to 90°.
Allow your arm to return to starting position and repeat for the recommended number of repetitions
and sets. Note: The unique channel feature of the Handle allows for the moment arm to be
increased, thereby increasing the effective tension and the effective range of motion.

Hold the Handle with palm up and the tubing projecting across your body from the channel

a position to your side, and slightly below elbow level (i.e. secure it in a door with the attachment
device). The tubing should have some tension in it at this position. Rotate your arm out to the side
(externally rotate). Be sure to keep your humerus at your side and your elbow bent to 90°. Allow
your arm to return to starting position and repeat for the recommended number of repetitions and sets.
Note: The unique channel feature of the Handle allows for the moment arm to be increased,
