By Joni Hyde of WorkoutsForWomen.com 
  
Stand with one leg forward and abdominal muscles held in tight. Hold a weighted bar with hands gripped about shoulder width apart.
 
Bend elbows and bring the bar up to about chin level with your elbows pulled in.  This is your start position. 
 
Press the bar straight up and slightly in front of your body, keeping elbows in.  
 Return bar to chin area. 
Throughout this move be sure that your elbows don't flare out to the sides.
