Midbreastbone: Feel where your stomach meets your breast bone, go up towards your head on the breast bone one fist size and that's where you press.

Midbreastbone: Remember, the secret to chest compressions is hard and fast. At least 100 compressions a minute, and depress the sternum 2-3 inches. Lean over the body for best results and use your body weight, not your arms (they tire quickly).
