		Incline Press

Author: Steven R. Zeigman WPS, AAT, former World Weightlifting Champion

CHEST & SHOULDER & ARMS (Beginner/Advanced/Spotters)

Adjust the Incline Press to the appropriate angle and put a bar onto the support racks. Load the required resistance onto the bar. Lie on your back on the Incline Press so that the barbell crosses above your nose. Take a grip just wider than shoulder width and bend your elbows slightly. Take a 3/4 breath. Push the bar off of the support racks by locking your elbows, and bring it in line with the top of your chest. Release and take another breath. Angle your arms outward and lower the bar in a controlled manner until it touches your chest. Now contract your shoulder and arm muscles quickly as you explode the bar back to a locked out overbody position.
