Step-by-step instructions
1
Sit down on a flat bench, with your feet firmly on the ground, holding an EZ Bar with a supinated (underhand) grip just wider than shoulder-width.

3
Keep your elbows close to your torso at all times, and let them be your pivot point.
4
Lift the EZ bar towards your chest while keeping your back flat against the bench
5
Return the bar to the starting position with careful control, and repeat for the programmed number of reps.
