How to do Barbell High Incline Bench Press
- Set the bench to a steep incline of around 60 degrees and lie back with your feet planted flat.
- Grip the bar slightly wider than shoulder width and pull your shoulder blades back into the pad.
- Unrack the bar to full arm extension and stack the wrists directly over the elbows.
- Lower the bar slowly to the upper chest, just below the collarbone, with elbows tracking under the bar.
- Pause briefly with the bar at the chest, keeping core tension and a tight upper back.
- Press the bar back up along the same path until the arms are fully locked out over the upper chest.
