How to perform it
Set up an incline bench at a 45-degree angle. Lie down on the bench with your feet flat on the ground. Grasp the barbell with an overhand grip, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Unrack the barbell and lower it slowly towards your chest, keeping your elbows at a 45-degree angle. Pause for a moment at the bottom, then push the barbell back up to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
