Equipment
barbell, plates, adjustable bench, rack, safeties
- Set an adjustable bench to a modest incline inside a suitable rack. Lie back with your head and back supported and your feet planted.
- Take a comfortable close overhand grip and keep your wrists aligned with your forearms. Use the rack safeties or a spotter for a loaded bar.
- Lower the bar toward your upper chest with your elbows close to your sides, then press up under control.
- Keep your hips on the bench and stop the press before forcing your elbows past straight. Return the bar securely to the rack after your set.
Choose a comfortable range and use secure equipment. The illustration is a movement reference; stop if a movement causes pain.
