    Your chest and head should be up and your shoulder blades retracted. This will be your starting position.

    Press the handles forward by extending through the elbow.

  4. 04 · return

    After a brief pause at the top, return the weight just above the start position, keeping tension on the muscles by not returning the weight to the stops until the set is complete.
