*This can be done using an EZ bar or barbell. An EZ bar might be easier on the wrists.

• Grab a bar and lie on an incline bench.
• Extend your arms out over you as you’re lying on the bench. The grip should be shoulder-width or just inside shoulder-width apart.
• Keep your upper arms still and bend the elbows to lower the bar behind your head.
• Once the bar has been lowered to your forehead or just behind your head, use your triceps to push the bar back up.
• Once you’ve completed the number of repetitions you’re aiming for on skullcrushers, immediately switch to close grip bench press.
• Bring the bar down to your upper chest, and press back up – focusing on the triceps. Repeat for however many repetitions you’re aiming for.
