May’s Exercise of The Month
The Barbell Guillotine Bench Press is May’s exercise of the month! Its primary focus is to build up and bring out the definition of the upper chest just below the clavicle or (collar bone).
To perform the movement lay with your back flat on a bench and feet flat on the floor – grasp the bar with a shoulder width grip for maximum emphasis on chest; the closer together your hands are on the bar the more tricep you will use, the farther apart your hands are will put more emphasis on the front deltoids. Position yourself under the bar so that when you lower the bar it comes down to your neck. Press the bar back up until your arms are straight, but not locked out and repeat. This excercise can also be performed using a smith machine if you are working out alone and need to self spot.
