How to do a Barbell Push Press
1. Set up a squat rack so that the bar rests just above the front delts and unrack the bar. Alternatively, you can lift a bar to rest on the delts. Place your feet hip width apart and hands slightly wider than shoulder width apart, elbows pointing forward. 2. Bend the knees and hips to dip down slightly, then extend both at the same time and come up to the balls of your feet. Your core, glutes, and quads should all be engaged. At the same time, extend both arms to press the barbell overhead. 3. Return to standing and lower the barbell to your shoulders, making sure to keep your core engaged throughout.
