How to do it — One Arm Floor Press
- 1Lie down on a flat surface with your back pressing against the floor or an exercise mat. Make sure your knees are bent.
- 2Have a partner hand you the bar on one hand. When starting, your arm should be just about fully extended, similar to the starting position of a barbell bench press. However, this time your grip will be neutral (palms facing your torso).
- 3Make sure the hand you are not using to lift the weight is placed by your side.
- 4Begin the exercise by lowering the barbell until your elbow touches the ground. Make sure to breathe in as this is the eccentric (lowering part of the exercise).
- 5Then start lifting the barbell back up to the original starting position. Remember to breathe out during the concentric (lifting part of the exercise).
- 6Repeat until you have performed your recommended repetitions.
- 7Switch arms and repeat the movement.
