Variant of the pressing motion, great for developing max upper body strength.

The narrow grip of the bar puts greater emphasis on triceps and upper pectoralis capacity. Shoulder strain is reduced, if scapular position is controlled for during the sequence.

As with other exercises performed in a sitting position, actively engage your feet with the ground.
