Step-by-step instructions
- 01Place an upright bench centrally in the power rack and set the hooks and safeties so the bar can be unracked and reracked without shoulder strain.\n2. Sit tall with the feet planted, brace the trunk, and take the bar at the upper chest with wrists stacked over elbows.\n3. Press the bar close to the face, moving the head slightly back and then through as the bar clears the forehead.\n4. Finish with locked elbows and the bar balanced over the shoulders without leaning the torso back.\n5. Lower under control to the upper chest and guide the bar fully into both hooks after the final rep.
