Barbell Guillotine Bench Press
Expert Advice
Lower the bar slowly towards your neck rather than your chest, but be cautious and use a spotter as this variation can place more stress on the shoulder joints.
How-to-do Steps
- Lie on a flat bench with your eyes under the barbell and grip the bar slightly wider than shoulder-width.
- Unrack the barbell and hold it straight over your shoulders with your arms locked.
- Inhale and lower the bar slowly towards your neck, keeping your elbows flared out.
- Lower the bar until it's just above your neck, then press the bar back up to the starting position.
