INTERMEDIATE
Barbell Push Press
Barbell Push Press is a full-body movement that increases strength and power in your upper body and your lower body. This exercise primarily targets the hip, core, and shoulders.
Instructions
- Grasp a barbell and hold it with a grip slightly less than shoulder-width apart. Pull the bar just above your shoulders, keeping your elbows close to your body.
- Bend your knees and lower your body into a semi-squat position.
- Push the weight above your head as you press into your heels to pull yourself up abruptly. Pause, then slowly lower the barbell back to the starting position.
Tips
- Be sure to lift your hips up and perform the lift explosively.
- Don't overexert your lower back in the locked position.
- Make sure you finish the top of the press by locking your elbows.
