Expert Advice

  2. Press the plate straight out in front of you until your arms are fully extended.
  3. Pause briefly at full extension, squeezing your chest and shoulder muscles.
  4. Slowly return the plate to the starting position at your chest.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
