Floor Press

Chest · Barbell

How to do it

Lie on the floor with knees bent and the bar or dumbbells up. Lower until your triceps touch the floor, pause a beat and press. The floor cuts the range right before the part that bothers a shoulder, so this is the press of choice when a shoulder is cranky, and it forces you to press with no bounce. You feel the chest and a lot of triceps in the lockout.
