Lie on an incline bench angled at 30-60° (the steeper the incline, the greater the stress on the upper chest).
Hold the bar with your hands equal distance apart from the end, keep your palms facing forwards. Remove the bar from the rack and position it directly over your collarbone with your arms fully straight.
The right movement of the exercise
Bend your arms, allowing your elbows to travel down to the sides, and slowly lower the bar down to your upper part of your chest.
The bar should just touch the upper part of your chest below your collarbone. Hold for a 1-2 seconds.
Push the bar back to the starting position.

Do not bounce the bar off your chest ,this risk in injuries.
Keep the bar straight and take few seconds during the start if needed to adjust the bar position.
Keep your grip firm on the bar which can lead to better lifting and will keep the momentum of your exercise constant
