Seated barbell press behind neck

Sit on a military press bench and grab the bar with a wider than shoulder width grip (your upper arm and your forearm should create an angle of 90 degrees in the middle of the movement). Now, with your arms fully extended  and the bar high above your head, slowly start lowering the bar behind your head until your upper arms are slightly past parallel to the floor. Inhale on this part of the repetition. Now, as you exhale, lift the bar up returning to the starting position.
