Great video Homer Arseoff
Very informative.
Would you suggest doing th ohp like a olympic press with internal rotation of the shoulders at the top and elevated traps?
I always felt a narrow grip felt natural and more powerful. That's what amazes me about Larry Wheels, he presses with such a wide grip
I'm really grateful you also included kgs. Keep up the good work Omar
What a bullshit form. Free weights are meant to move in the line of the gravity(perpendicular to the floor) for continuous tension. Look at the path of your barbell , its not in a straight line . So the muscle(anterior delt) is being worked only at the bottom and only at the top of the movement. Rest in between is a waste as no tension on the muscle.
I like the push press more. At times I do overhead press too.
You lift for god knows how many years and can overhead press for 102kg x5. Now I know its way harder than my newbie mind would lead me to believe and am kinda proud of my 50kg as a somewhat beginner.
Amazing! Thank you. You are the 4th guy who got the guts to talk about the guts going in wrong places. Any recommendations? Thank you.
As my old strength coach says, "squeeze your glutes like your in prison!". I found landmine presses extremely helpful for feeling lat activation.
Are we not supposed to eat vegetables now
Listen lads, band work prior to OHP is vital for shoulder health. Face pulls, pull downs. Y shapes, etc.
Then, dont neglect the push press. The push press (with correct form) allows your body to not only get used to more mass, but allows you to train stacking (as mentioned by Omar)
Great tips on the overhead press. Btw I just voted for you on this website http://www.filtring.com/topic/best-youtube-fitness-channel/ because for me you're the most valuable fitness channel out there
I heard that when you train your calves it uses up all your recovery so you can't recover anymore… and you actually lose muscle..
damn! all the blood!
that blood pressure in the head comment at the end of the video made me LoL cuz i know exactly wat youre talking about and i thought you were gonna say some negative medical condition about it or something
Make a hernia video
My wrists sounds like they are crushing and it feels hella uncomftable while doing it standing, i hate pretty big brachiallis and it feels like the bar/weight is stacking on top of those instead of just being able to lay it on my clavicle, i can do them seated military press with full range of motion touching top of the chest etc. with no pain at all
dude's totally in his prime – fuck the haters
Love it
Omar, you are the GOAT
I<3u
Great video
it sucks i fucked up my shoulder overhead pressing for the first time ina while the other day :((((
there is no problem at all if your back was a little pinding with a overhead press or with the push over head the most emportant as you said is the legs stabitlity iam doing over head press and push over head .. from 2 months only and iam doing max 75 KG push over and 65 press overhead .. and the goal is 150 kg
Try pressing 225 lbs?
I'm struggling to press 70lbs for 5 sets of 5 :-/
You confused me when you mention the narrow grip being slightly WIDER than shoulder-width. Wouldn't a wider grip be wider than shoulder-width and a narrow grip narrow than shoulder-width or at shoulder width?
Update: NVM I understand now. I grabbed a barbell from my gym and placed myself in the OHP position and the narrow grip does go wider than shoulder-width
head pressure intense with ohp? heck yeah i want those trap,neck and head veins!!!!
Sounds like you read Starting Strength.
5:47 lmfao.
Just started the OHP journey! Very excited! All of your OHP vids are very useful! Thanks!
