How to perform

  1. 1

    Lie on the floor face down and place your hands about 36 inches apart from each other holding your torso up at arms length.

  2. 2

    Place your toes on top of a flat bench. This will allow your body to be elevated. Note: The higher the elevation of the flat bench, the higher the resistance of the exercise is.

  3. 3

    Lower yourself until your chest almost touches the floor as you inhale.

  4. 4

    Using your pectoral muscles, press your upper body back up to the starting position and squeeze your chest. Breathe out as you perform this step.

  5. 5

    After a second pause at the contracted position, repeat the movement for the prescribed amount of repetitions.

Important tips

  • Squeeze your chest at the top of every rep.

  • Keep your elbows on a steady path — no mid-rep flaring.

  • Lower under control — the eccentric builds the muscle.
