FINISH

Sit comfortably on an incline bench with your chin and chest resting against the bench.

Smoothly lift the bar up from a vertical position, to one whereby your arms are now horizontal to the floor, keeping your hands shoulder width apart, hands now extended forward.

Throughout the movement aim to keep your back straight, chin and chest in contact with the bench to avoid any leaning back movement.

You may decide to lifts the weights with a wide arm or shoulder width hand grip, having your hands grasping the bar in either a underarm (biceps assisted) or over arm grasp.
