Barbell Floor Press On Plyo Box

The barbell floor press off a plyo box is a unique pressing variation that combines the range of motion restriction of a floor press with the full bench press mechanics — including leg drive — that traditional floor pressing eliminates. This exercise is ideal for powerlifters targeting bench press weak points, athletes managing shoulder discomfort, and lifters looking to build tricep lockout strength. Learn how to set it up, perform it correctly, and program it effectively for maximum carryover to your bench press.
