Well-developed, rounded shoulders are one of many key features that dramatically improves and completes a powerful looking upper body. And in order to best grow this muscle and to answer the often asked question of “how to get bigger shoulders”, there’s no doubt that the standing overhead press should be a staple in your routine. However, despite the seemingly straightforward movement pattern of the barbell overhead press (also known as the “shoulder press” or “military press”), there’s a lot more that goes into it than simply lifting a bar overhead. In fact, proper overhead press form and shoulder press form in general is what’s going to enable you to get big shoulders most efficiently while minimizing your risk of injury as you do so. Therefore, in this video I’ll go through how to shoulder press properly by discussing the 5 most common overhead pressing technique mistakes people make.

Mistake 1 (Flaring Elbows): 0:51
Mistake 2 (Curved Bar Path): 2:06
Mistake 3 (Arched Back): 3:18
Mistake 4 (Bent Wrists): 5:49
Mistake 5 (Using Momentum): 6:32

Thank you so much for this; I'm not sure if this video is directly related to a discussion some of us had in previous comment sections regarding shoulder and rotator cuff injuries, but either way this is a VERY helpful video. I also really like the timestamps provided, that is a great go-to shortcut for those of us that will keep returning to the video as we later train. I would give a second vote to the other comment in this thread about Bent-Over Rows, and really any type of *safe & effective* back exercises. Between old injuries and work related mishaps, my back is effed up, upper _and_ lower with bulging disc and I have just given up on back exercises, plus I'm an old fart, haha. But as I slowly heal, I want to have a gameplan in place on what, how, and when to get this area strong again without aggravating it with bad form or time-wasting routines. LOTS of videos out there but bro-science and non-tested workouts is not what I seek. Much appreciation for all you do, man; your series of videos is some of the most no nonsense and pragmatic I've ever seen. Keep up the good work, dude!

Great video Jeremy! I like how you really emphasize the importance of form. It’s often overlooked when we overemphasize weight. I’d love to see a video (if you haven’t already done one) on the benefits of emphasizing the number of sets (at a lower weight), versus fewer sets at a much higher weight. And a balance of sorts depending on one’s goals. Thanks for all you do!

This video was incredibly helpful - specifically, the segment on mobility. I started lifting about two years ago, and barbell back squats are still hard for me. I can't perform them to parallel (bodyweight or weighted), though variations like box squats and goblet squats have helped me to target the same musculature. I've been told it's a mobility issue, that I lack hip and ankle flexibility. I've also been told that my legs are proportioned in a way that potentially makes squatting difficult, because I have long legs overall but short shins (the implication being that when I squat, my center of gravity is further back than the average person, resulting in a higher propensity for falling backwards at lower squat depths). Before watching this video, I had a suspicion that my overhead press wasn't exactly on target. You asked viewers to submit exercise suggestion, and while I can't think of any specific exercise to suggest, I do have a request for continued insights into how mobility affects the performance of certain exercises. Your content is always thoughtful, easy to understand, and concise. Thanks for all the hard work you put into educating this community.

1)Dont grip too wide. Make your thumbs slightly outisde your shoulders. This lets ur forearms to be positioned under your hands. But when you go up then its cool for your forearm position to move 2)Make path to be straight. Before u start the lift, stick your chest out , as u lift you pull chin back and then pull chin forward after it is over your head. Dont stick head to forward and move bar too far back. 3) 3:22 Dont arch lower back too much. Before you and while you lift squeeze glutes, contract quads and abs. Arching back could be due to tight lats. This restricts overhead movement and then lower back arches to compensate. Do it for few min. After that then do 5:30 to counter thoracic mobility. 4) 5:50 Dont bend wrist too much. Counter this by doing Bulldog grip at 6:16. 5) Dont use momentum and legs when getting tired cuz that is cheating. This will involve more lower body and less shoulders and upper body.

I´ve also heard that you train your whole anterior and exterior chain more while doing the overhead press. The reason for that being, you use your upper legs, glutes, back and core to stabilize te movement while standing. When you are seated, there is much less stabilization needed.

eventually, progression will be limited by the weak points - wrist and rotator cuff linkages (for most people that will be around 30-40kg a side) sure, you can hock those higher weights up using dynamic moves, but you stand a good chance of it landing on your face, especially without a spotter OHP allows higher weights to be moved more safely

So using the push press to complete the last or last couple of reps for a set or last set is bad? I don't see it, since it still uses the delts to a degree after they've failed especially during the eccentric phase of the exercise.

It's a slippery slope. How do you know if you're making progress in your journal if you don't have strict form? Like I see guys who keep piling more weight on their squat but they're not getting stronger, they're just not squating as deep as they were. They go "I added 50 lbs to my squat in 1 month" but now they're only doing a half squat. Maybe you added 20 lbs to your press in a few weeks but your last 2 sets rely on momentum. And in a months it'll be your last 3 sets need monentum but hey you put 10 more pounds on the bar.

@@leesonneville1817 Nonsense...bro/ego lifting is a completely different thing. Anyone who claims to add 20lb to their overhead press in a month is full of shit anyway. Considering it's the most difficult lift to progress. Half squatters are also a joke and no serious lifter even bothers to do more than shake their head at them. The push press and strict overhead press are 2 completely different things. Using one or the other or even both does not confuse me as to where my "PR" is...which is nonsense anyway. I have no "PR's" in any of my lifts. I do 3X15 sets. I know once i complete all 3X15 sets in strict form with a given weight... it's time to add a few lb to the bar...fail... succeeded...add...rinse repeat... I don't throw in the push press reps until i have failed my strict form reps...

@@BendApparatus Agree with everything you said man. I see people doing this though, adding weight but they start cheating with momentum or doing push press or whatever because they just want to keep adding weight and won't admit they're not actually getting stronger. So you just have to be aware of what you're doing.

I recently invested in a home gym set up, what I Did not take into account though was my ceiling height and it prevents me from doing overhead presses. Which is a bummer, because I like this exercise because of how difficult it is for me to progress in. Anyone have any tips or experience doing seated overheads? Do those work well? I know it won't be the full body work out as the standing overheads are, but think they have to be a ok replacement for my situation.
