How to perform it
Set up a barbell on a power rack at chest height. Stand facing the barbell and position yourself underneath it, with your feet shoulder-width apart. Grip the barbell with an overhand grip, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Lift the barbell off the rack and hold it directly above your chest, with your arms fully extended. Lower the barbell down towards your chest, keeping your elbows tucked in close to your body. Pause for a moment when the barbell touches your chest. Push the barbell back up to the starting position, fully extending your arms. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
