Instructions

Place a barbell on a rack at approximately shoulder height. Grasp the barbell with an overhand grip that is slightly wider than shoulder width and step back from the rack. Brace your glutes and core and bend your knees slightly. Using the force in your legs as you straighten them back up, powerfully press the bar upwards until your arms are extended straight over head. Lower the bar back to the starting position to repeat.

Tips

When your arms are fully extended, the bar should be inline with your ears. Be careful not to hyperextend your back when performing this exercise.
