Step-by-step
- Set up like a bench press; have a partner hold the board on your chest
- Grip the bar slightly wider than shoulder width and unrack it
- Lower the bar under control onto the board
- Pause for one second as it lightly touches the board
- Drive the bar up explosively to elbow lockout
Coaching tip
Strengthens the lockout phase of the bench press; the thicker the board, the bigger the triceps share.
