How to perform it
Step-by-step instructions
- 01Lie on a bench with a shoulder-width or slightly narrower grip and the bar over the upper chest.
- 02Set the elbows a little wider than the hands and keep the upper arms from drifting forward or backward.
- 03Lower the bar toward the chin or throat line while the wrists cock back slightly.
- 04Stop when the forearms meet the biceps or the elbows are just above chest level.
- 05Press back to lockout by extending the elbows, keeping it a triceps press rather than a normal bench rep.
