Lie down on a flat bench and grip the bar anywhere from 8-10 inches apart. With your feet, butt and shoulders firmly planted on the bench, un-rack the bar. Keep control of the weight, lower the bar until it touches the middle of your chest. Pause briefly at the bottom and then drive the weight back up to the starting position.
