Instructions

Steps : 1.) Begin by standing up straight with your feet shoulder width apart, holding a weighted barbell at waist level with an overhand grip. 2.) Then push the barbell up and above your head so that your arms are fully extended. 3.) Slowly lower the bar towards your upper chest so that it is almost touching, then immediately push it back up to the starting position. 4.) As soon as you reach this position, lower the bar back down behind your neck and hold for a count. 5.) Return back to the starting position. 6.) Repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
