FitCi
Step-by-step
- Lie face down on an incline bench with your chest resting on the top end
- Grip the bar at shoulder width with your arms fully extended below
- Pull the bar toward the bench by driving your elbows back
- As the bar nears the bench, squeeze your shoulder blades for one second
- Lower the bar under control to full arm's length
Coaching tip
Never let your chest leave the bench; that support takes the lower back completely out of the movement.
