① Incline Lockout, Arms Long

• · Hands on the bench edge, under the shoulders
• · One straight line — head, hips, heels
• · Elbows stay straight the whole time

② Let the Blades Pinch

• · Chest sinks toward the bench — blades squeeze
• · Elbows locked — nothing bends
• · Body stays one rigid line

③ The Plus — Push the Bench Away

• · Push the bench away — spread the blades wide
• · Upper back gently rounds at the top
• · Don't shrug toward the ears
