What do you think your single-arm behind-the-opposite-knee deficit skinny handle axle deadlift max is?

[@Mike71730]

Eric does the thing, and then tells us about it and why he's been doing it. As opposed to someone telling us about doing the thing and why they're going to do it, and then never geting around to doing it. We all know those in our lives who are the latter. Thanks for being a renaissance man, Eric. Edit: Also, I'm taking the barbell OHP out and experimenting with the dumbell OHP with FAT GRIPZ.

[@Huffman_Tree]

Now that my two obligatory fat gripz videos are done for the day ...

[@declanbcorcoran]

man the knowledge you share with us in these videos is invaluable and has changed the way I train and think about life completely. I'm sure I'm not alone in saying when I step in front of the bar and take a deep breath on a PR I channel the mindset of the bugez. for real I'm not sure how to thank you other than liking and listening.

Looking back at the old videos is really great! So much Sticky Ricky content that I missed.

[@neverforgetsolaire]

As someone who does OHP with a barbell, i agree with the points in this video. I have to do 3x the volume for my lateral and rear delts than I do with OHP to help stop anterior domination.

[@ciarfah]

Sticky Ricky! Helping overcoming my sticky Ricky sticking points in my OHP!

[@Rprihradsky]

I press every day with the standing barbell military press and my shoulders feel fine: I find that its better to use a close grip (fingers almost on the smooth part), and of course, do enough rear delt and rotator cuff work. The delts and tris are also small muscle groups that recover very quickly, makes it even better for this style of training.

[@omarsohal926]

Thanks sticky Ricky for this knowledge

[@darrellfriesen5328]

Im really loving all these informative videos your doing on shoulder health! Keep up the great content Sticky Ricky!

[@michaelanthony4750]

Bugez with the genius advice once again. Thanks for the tidbits!

[@TaoistSwordsman]

You had my attention at sticky Ricky 😂😂😂

[@emeleoemon874]

This is what I needed. Now I have a reason to change from the barbell standing OHP. I always thought doing the standing barbell OHP was the superior shoulder compound, but what's superior is rotation for this. For everything. I love working out, but haven't been excited to workout in a while, like I am now. I'm doing a lot of different shit tomorrow and REALLY can't wait to go back, workout and make these gains.

[@Milo-il9qc]

I'm enjoying your content for months now, but I gotta admit this is the first video of yours I've watched purely about advise. I love it! Great stuff!

[@JorgeGonzalez-sx7fk]

not sure if i’m totally on board with this. you’re basically saying, “if you barbell ohp wrong, then you’re more prone to injury.” moving the bar around your head is wrong, you move your head out of the bar path. you don’t hyperextend your lower back, you squeeze your glutes and maintain thoracic extension. While I will concede to db pressing being more L spine friendly, idk about it being more shoulder friendly. Its pretty easy to bring your humerus too far back in the shoulder socket (like in a btn press) while db pressing which is pretty much impossible to do while bb pressing

[@ericbugenhagenOfficial]

i can respect your opinion. im just stating mine from years of training athletes as well as myself...dumbbell has much less room for error

[@JorgeGonzalez-sx7fk]

Eric Bugenhagen much love, brother. my comment is more anecdotally inspired. db presses are more prone to giving me funky feelings even though I agree there is less room for error

[@JorgeGonzalez-sx7fk]

Don Meg yeah man, having gotten a way bigger back in the last year and a bit I can really use my lats to support my ohp. switching over to thumbless grip also made a big difference in how good it feels on my joints/the quality of my starting position and bar

[@tutu7564]

Jorge Gonzalez I think it’s all about mobility and anatomy. I can agree on both parts, I love the engagement I get from my back when I do a barbell press, compared to a db. But for over all making my shoulders look bigger and feel better, I would choose the db press. I use to not like it though because my shoulders were wonky with poor mobility. I just started to work my shoulders in all angles really light everyday, and I manage to successfully fix it. My 2 cents at least on those movements.

[@ozzythehoddy]

Eric has now renamed his pre-workout his pre-video. Still got intensity in these informative vids

Lil Decki thank you :*

[@DDB-91]

You are looking great Bugez, still funny as hell lol

[@steezydan8543]

Truth. I had to stop doing most barbell exercises, from squats to benching, because I would contract one side of my body correctly and neglect the other side. Focusing on mobility and awkward deadlifts has really gotten my overall muscle balance health up. Those one handed presses were one of the first athletic style movements I did, back when I started lifting, because it felt SAFE!!!

[@thomasc2869]

Talk about improving vertical JUMP ability

Great eric, I've learned something. I'm a trainer myself and they didn't thought us the things you showed here, thanks.

[@JeffOchoaFitnessDudeJeff]

Thanks Tricky Ricky for bringing up some good points and so, I will be trying the single arm overhead press. That being said I have good shoulder mobility and I like press behind neck as well.

[@EmperorPenguinXRemas]

Nice tips as usual, I always get pain with presses with barbels. I like dumbells way more and way stronger

[@jerm9864]

Make a video on fixing tenderness in the SI joint?

[@denw0]

Hey bugey you also just explained why gymnastic rings are so good for shoulder health! I’d love to see you jump into a rings experiment!

[@skipeveryday7282]

Speaking of rotating the hands,I just discovered I can do weighted dips on my kitchen counters and it feels really comfortable because of the position of my hands where as every gym I have been to I seem to have real problems with their dipping station due to the angle. I truely believe i am going to very very quickly get into new terrority with not just the weighted dip,but all my pressing in general. All due to hand and wrist position. It clearly matters and it seems everyone is slightly different.

[@clenjones5748]

Ross Catto change your pic. Fuck sakes.

[@skipeveryday7282]

Clen Jones why?

[@skipeveryday7282]

Christophe Paller nah I want to go heavy af and get strong I cant exactly hang weight from myself and dips off of that.

[@ruburtoe1]

Its partly the use of the fingers. Its not just a bar of pressure but a wider flat plane of pressure when you dip on the counter surface. So maybe dips with more open hand positions aligns the up-chain myofascial system to more robust movement

[@letsgobubblegum]

This video changed my mind about a lot of shoulder work I was doing and I do feel much more strength and size gains in my shoulders as a result of doing this.

[@dojanglesclimb]

Completely agree, dude. I'm a fan of landmine presses or single arm DB or KB presses - especially bottom up KB presses, but barbell OHP always snaps my shit. I don't even bb bench press any more for the same reason. I know they're a standard of strength for many people, but it's just not good for me personally. I sit practically all day at work so my posture already blows ass. Not trying to fuck it up more.

[@JAMIE_ATKINS]

Another great video! Thanks for continuing to share your thoughts Eric!

[@HipToTheKids]

Brogenhagen, you got some kettlebells there try doing a kettlebell press instead of dumbbell. May just be a personal thing but I much prefer it, especially with a full ROM like you demonstrated on your right side.

[@SawWaveSurfer]

The Boooogz is the babyface of lifting!! I've been thinking of ditching the barbell ohp for the unilateral ohp. I already dumped the barbell bench after not finding a solution for shoulder discomfort. No matter the angle, grip or elbow tuck. Dumbells are fine though

[@meerkatmatt1182]

thats pure dedication to the craft, inspiring

[@badmudda]

makes sense, been doing db bench presses with zero pain after screwing my shoulder for the 3rd time. Thinking of throwing away barbell presses all together

[@Raw_Feedings]

The bugez with solid advice once again. Damn Ricky

[@ShortSideSniper17]

I wish it was about fat grips tho

[@aimanhakim2662]

Thank you dalhagen, for your advise, i've been afraid to do it for more heavy load because i'm a beginner.

[@bloozism]

Fat grips for tricep exercises?

[@ericbugenhagenOfficial]

absolutely...fat grips/thick handles better activate the triceps vs thinner handles. i know there have been a couple studies on that

[@bloozism]

Eric Bugenhagen thanks for the knowledge sticky Ricky.

[@REVIVALFitness]

You just changed my life

[@toonyx8892]

Sticky Ricky thanks for the tips love ya

[@Tomstaman]

My favourite shoulder exercise is the behind the neck press. It gets alot of hate but as long as you have adequate shoulder mobility, that shit hits your delts like nothing else.

[@maxb6078]

These are some of his best tips

[@taylorhill8001]

Yeah shoulders are definitely different, I use to do a ton of single dumbbell snatches and I could snatch about ten more pounds easy with my right side then with the left... and I could talk about fat grips all day

[@taylorhill8001]

I always do standing over head shoulder presses with my spine backed up against a pole like a basketball pole or the edge of a power rack and keep my back pinched against it, would that be good form or bad..it seems to isolate my shoulders pretty well so the weight is generally being pressed with just the delt and nothing else majorly

[@taylorhill8001]

Yeah I feel like 75 percent of the exercises I do work shoulders already.. So Only work shoulders like 3 times a month heavily... on another note If you cant overhead squat the barbell you need to go back to the kiddy pool lol.. just kidding

[@SetTheCurve]

Your videos inspire me. I'm going to take this info and get buger every day.

[@ElreyRayo]

Very good & valuable lesson 👍

2 years late, but I'm here recognizing that Chaos & Pain stringer shirt!!

[@autokrator3953]

U should do a summer shred series. U deserve so much more subs. Very informative as usual. I'll give it a try next workout.

[@amkool6135]

Same points apply to the barbell squat. 1. Your hips could be uneven and when axial loaded the uneven hips could lead to uneven stance and spine leading to injury. 2. The bar is not directly over your center of gravity it's behind it making the movement less efficient. 3. Since you have to lean forward you are targeting your Erectors but ur already getting enuf back work from deadlifts. It seems like there could be a better exercise for legs than back squats but I have yet to discover it

[@johanreineholm9446]

There is none, but have fun looking

[@heroicman03]

Front squats

[@fanatykdody]

Nice, I'm a fan of the informative format.

[@haktezak7413]

My shoulder popped out of socket during one arm DB press cause I tried to balance the weight during the last portion of the lift and arm simply went in wrong position, and boom, dislocation 2months of complete pause, 4 months of additional rehab. I think hypertrophy wise, DB press, especially one arm for the win. But me personally find barbell safer. Its safer to approach lift, it feels safer even during the lockout, its overall safer to start and finish the movement with barbell and ofcourse easier implementation of progressive overload.

[@ericbugenhagenOfficial]

i agree with a lot of that. i will say however, the shoulder dislocation sounds like a freak accident and not very common,. i'm sorry to hear that tho man...it sucks being out for so long. nothing worse than injuries

[@djgiuseppe3197]

[@mattdoherty2859]

I've been doing this for the past few years. Good to know I'm not the only one.

[@nikesbeast]

This is so true. We think so alike its crazy

[@normanquednau]

Great video! I practice OHP for Strongman sport... Thanks for the advice. The old time freaks practiced unilateral movements. Roger that and understood. Out

[@FalconsSB190]

My favorite OHP variation. It’s like the suitcase deadlift of overhead pressing.

[@leines49]

On the topic of mobility, look into shoulder CARs or FRCwork in general. The most intense mobility work you'll ever do.

[@Peter-733]

brilliant I always thought the shoulders moved different. im definitely not doing barbell presses anymore

[@samsonslmpson1986]

I blew a few discs in the neck and found the only thing that doesnt hurt it is doing single arm presses at a time instead of doing both at the same time. Wish I figured it out sooner...

[@gannypoo66]

i'm huge on single arm dumbell. its such a good movement. also been incorporating fat grip barbell pin overhead press from chest level (mouthful). the deadstop style really builds that explosive starting strength that i've been lacking in the ohp. (just finally hit a bodyweight ohp at 150~)

[@jacobg1585]

Jack Baer I’m at a BW of 150 and hit 145 today👊 went for 150 and failed though

[@gannypoo66]

Jacob Groppel that happened to me too many times. It would get just to forhead level then stay there for 10 seconds before i just drop it lol

[@chrisdart1665]

Jack Baer you could just pause ohp and get better results.

[@ciarfah]

One arm dumbbell clean and press is probably my favourite exercise, I've had this exact issue. Left shoulder feels weak and pinched if I press the same way the right

[@SarsBeSan]

Can you make a video about strengthening mid and lower traps to help alleviate the issues surrounding upper trap overcompensation :o

[@finethehuman1821]

I believe it's not muscular or skeletal imbalance but rather neural. I'm not a hundred percent sure but I think it has to do with motor functions. I'm right handed and my right and left arms are equally strong but when I do say push-ups or pull-ups, my elbows go two different ways if I'm not paying attention. Overhead pressing with my left arm feels a bit unnatural to me as well, almost as if the weight wants to follow a different path than I plan

[@CreamingDreamer]
