Instructions

  1. Lie back on a decline bench and hook your feet securely under the leg rollers.

  2. Grip the barbell with your hands slightly narrower than shoulder-width apart to target your triceps.

  3. Unrack the barbell carefully and hold it directly over your lower chest with your arms fully extended.

  4. Lower the bar in a controlled motion down toward your lower chest while keeping your elbows tucked close to your body.

  5. Press the barbell straight back up to the starting position by extending your arms and exhaling.
