Instructions

With the bar racked, lie flat on the floor so that your eyes are inline with the bar. Your legs can be bent or straight, but the key is not to use your legs in the movement. Take a wide overhand grip of the bar and keep your shoulders squeezed back in the floor. Take the bar off the rack and position it inline with your lower chest (the bottom of your sternum). Lower the weight until your elbow touches the floor and pause momentarily. Press the bar up until your arms are fully extended.

Tip

To maintain a strong back position, focus on pushing your chest out through the whole movement.
