One Arm Floor Press

Sequenza

1. 01 · lie down

   Lie down on a flat surface with your back pressing against the floor or an exercise mat. Make sure your knees are bent.

2. 02 · receive bar

   Have a partner hand you the bar on one hand. When starting, your arm should be just about fully extended, similar to the starting position of a barbell bench press. However, this time your grip will be neutral (palms facing your torso).

3. 03 · free hand

   Make sure the hand you are not using to lift the weight is placed by your side.

4. 04 · lower

   Begin the exercise by lowering the barbell until your elbow touches the ground. Make sure to breathe in as this is the eccentric (lowering part of the exercise).

5. 05 · press up

   Then start lifting the barbell back up to the original starting position. Remember to breathe out during the concentric (lifting part of the exercise).

6. 06 · repeat

   Repeat until you have performed your recommended repetitions.

7. 07 · switch arms

   Switch arms and repeat the movement.
