Barbell Hooklying Bench Press

Start in a bench press position with your feet planted on the bench and knees bent. Grasp the barbell with an overhand grip, positioning your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Lift the barbell off the rack and lower it to your chest, keeping your elbows close to your sides. Push the barbell back up to the starting position, fully extending your arms.
