How to do it
- Lie on a flat bench under the bar and grip it with your hands about shoulder width apart.
- Unhook the bar and hold it over your chest.
- Lower it to your lower chest with your elbows tucked close.
- Press it straight up until your arms are straight, then re-hook it at the end.
Watch out: Gripping so narrow that your wrists bend and hurt.
