Barbell Bench Catch Press

Lie flat on your back on a weight bench with your feet planted firmly on the floor and grip the barbell slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.

Unrack the barbell carefully with assistance from a partner and hold it directly over your chest with arms fully extended.

Inhale as you slowly lower the barbell in a controlled movement until it lightly touches your mid-chest.

Exhale as you press the barbell powerfully back up to the starting position with your arms fully extended.

Complete your desired number of repetitions while maintaining a stable core and keeping your shoulders pressed against the bench.
