Barbell Pullover And Press Exercise Video

Exercise Instructions:

The barbell pullover and press is a great all round upper body mass builder working the chest, triceps, shoulders and lats. Setup for the exercise by grasping a barbell using a wider than shoulder with grip and laying back with your upper back on a flat bench (as demonstrated in the video above). Your body should be straight and your feet firmly planted on the floor. Push the barbell straight up towards the ceiling. This is the starting position for the exercise. Keeping your arms straight, lower the barbell back behind your head as far as possible. Pause, then slowly lower the bar back up. Once the bar is back to the starting position immediately lower it down towards your chest until it's almost touching. Pause, the raise the bar back up to the starting position. This is one rep, repeat for desired reps.

Tips & Advice:

It's important you flow with this exercise. Control the weight, but don't rest at the top position, as soon as you bring the weight up from behind your head start pressing it down towards your chest.
