Step 2: Now bend your knees slightly and lower your hips in a semi-squat position.

Step 3: Push up with your legs to extend your arms and lift the bar above your head to form a full elbow extension. Hold in that position briefly and then lower the bar back to the starting position.

Do three sets of eight reps each.
