The push press is criminally underrated for hypertrophy because it it allows you to handle more weight, especially during the eccentric part of the movement, provided you lower it more slowly.

@dariomortellaro2216 9 ай бұрын
I think it depends on how efficient you are with the movement, a proficient weightlifter will train it as an assistance movement for the timing in the dip and drive on the jerk, thus will be very fast and explosive. Similarly a proficient weightlifter will lower it fast absorbing the weight with the legs. As I said in a previous comment, since I started olympic weightlifting my traps exploded, as well as an improved mobility, but delts and traps remained more or less the same

The shoulder health bit is absolutely vital. I've had a nagging shoulder issue for 9+ months. After a month of taking a pressing break, I made sure to add in some basic shoulder health movements and some simple raises, which only takes maybe 15 extra minutes. It's made a massive difference and basically resolved the issue. Even just a 5lbs dumbbell for this kind of work can be enough!

To whom it might be useful: I've had shoulder pain when doing any kind of press for years. I finally tried an exercise i saw on YT last year, and it changed everything. I take an incline bench, set it one position above horizontal, put my knees on the seat, and lay chest down on the pad. Then i perform rear fly supersets. 10 at 90 degrees (pinkies up), 10 at 45 degrees, and 10 as close to my hips as possible. 3 sets. I suffered for several years. This routine turned it all around in under 2 weeks.

I no longer have the popping shoulders for 6 months now and I warm up with 30# now and DB press with 50 lbs with 65# as my PR DBpress for 7 reps.

Clean high pulls are the best thing I have ever done for my shoulders. I never had any luck progressing my strict press or lateral raises, but the high pulls have managed to get them to progress for once. Another benefit is that my traps have began to mutate as well, which along with Lü raises has dramatically improved my overhead mobility for strict and push press.

For me V-grip upright rows, cable front raise(cable between your legs) and cable laterals have been what got my delts to blow up and make my side delts stick out as some of my best muscles. Also like side laying incline laterals, regular standing never was much more than a pre fatigue/warm up or if my shoulders felt a bit raw, and of course when on the go but not something I felt like I got much growth and progression with dumbells was close to zero

It really just depends on the kind of recruitment you get in bench. Some days I just can't stop recruiting front delt other days I feel it all in my chest.

I started implementing the dumbbell front raises a few months ago into my push day... wow! Just, wow! I felt a burn in my front delts that I couldn't get from bench, where I feel my shoulders the least, and even seated dumbbell shoulder presses. Doing them in front of a mirror, I could really see my shoulders engaging and the striatians of it even though I have a relatively high body fat percentage. I'm going to drop my bench press for now, tendonitis in my thumb joint, which can loosen my grip, and focus on dips and seated shoulder presses.

I have been doing shoulder presses with resistance bands to help with my pull ups. I've seen progress in my pull ups within a week. I would do 4 struggling reps and now I do 7 with a bit a struggle. I abused my shoulders as a kid. I would play baseball and football and I guess I overthrew my arms. Ofc I'd warm up before hand but then after I was pushing through burnt shoulders. I can't wait to become stronger on my shoulder press and press heavier loads. I feel the difference and growth speed with them.

I'm currently taking a break from OHP. Ran into a couple walls trying to up my 1RM (lift started getting stale). Decided the solution was more muscle. I've been hammering my front delts on a seated machine press (really working on the stretch), and working in a lot of trap work with barbell rows (plus typical triceps and side delt work, too). I guarantee when I get back to OHP I'm going bust the plateau wide open because I've put on some decent size in my arms and delts, plus have the upper back stability to make it happen. I'm absolutely prioritizing shoulders over chest at the moment. Starting to see a little bit of a cap on my side delts is super motivating! Plus training the shoulder compounds doesn't really bother my shoulders or pecs like the horizontal pressing work can. Win-win-win 💪

I run my lat raises until complete failure and then chuck in as many partials as I can before my arms will not go anymore. Gives a good burn. I aim at 120 degree ROM, physiologically can't do super ROMs, idk if my delts hit or it's a bone structure thing but I'd have to add in external rotation which would shift the load from the medial delt to the internal rotation which is undesirable as I'm not trying to hit M. subscapularis on the laterals. I don't run my front raises *as hard* because I don't see the same issues with anterior deltoid development (probably because I end up hitting anterior during press exercises, and a few others incidentals), so I treat it more as an accessory. I also get good response on posterior delt from seated row, and I also do some external cable rotations to hit it a bit extra. I mean, yes I also hit medial deltoid on seated dumbbell overhead press but I don't feel that gives great growth for it so I treat it more as a delt pre-fatigue in that regard, works for me but can probably be optimised a whole bunch. I'm completely certain I've seen notable delt growth.

good vid! I love doing shoulders. I don't do bodybuilding though, i've also been slack for a few years sadly lol I did olympic weightlifting 8 years though, did a lot of military press and push press, also one called a chinese press sometimes also called a squat press i think, probably other stuff too. The chinese presses are more for power and strengthening the bottom position of the jerk, but I remember how fast I started getting strong when I had them added to my program. We had a world class coach who moved to Australia from Iran as a refugee & he ended up coaching us for free after coming to our gym & he was insanely strong, his coaching was the best I ever had in my life & I'm so glad I was lucky enough to experience that These days I don't train olympic weightlifting & I've just gotten back into training. For now I just do military presses 4x4 & if I can't finish the set I do push presses for the remaining sets & I note this each session, so the next sessions I can see if I push further with those strict ones, doing less push presses & I personally found this process is really fast for me to get numbers up for my strict press, as well as push press obviously. I also control the bar down to my rack position after each rep, I don't just let it drop & catch it.. sometimes maybe I do with the last rep out of a bad habit lol

Question for Bromz and everybody in the comments, too. There's some Pin Press footage here, and I've used those from time to time in my training. I'm lifting on squat stands, so I'm returning the bar to a relatively narrow set of J hooks instead of the cross beams you'd have in a true power rack. That means I have to be slow and careful on the descent so I don't miss the hooks, and I've noticed that I can feel my rear delts working more doing that slow descent than anything else I've ever done for rear delt training, and I actually do prioritize rear delts, so I think I know of what I speak. So has anybody else noticed this effect when doing Pin Press, or am I crazy?

This high endurance is helpful your strongman events im figuring and many viewers are interested in this topic. I believe you can actually do it and beat Ray Allen's or the current NFL record. Pretty cool stuff to watch and man would you get alot of views! Since I think you are someone who is a superbad ass you could follow this up with doing the combine 225 weight doing shoulder press, or push press. Im guessing you could OHP 225 sitting or standing for 30+ times. And wouldnt that be cool...to beat most NFL players bench total doing the harder shoulder press. You could even wear your favorite NFL jersey ir Teeshirt for fun. You are always looing for ideas for videos so this one I promise would get a million views.

the thing is im iffy about the shoulder press and compound movements in general. if you look closely not every guy throwing up a lot of weight over head has that big of delts. sure they will have some development, but many guys will still not have anywhere near the delt meat they should have on their shoulder for the weight they are putting up. its like any exercise, one particular exercise will make one guys muscles big but wont necessarily for another guy. Everybody's anatomy and form are different and one guy might get big delts from overhead press and another not a lot at all, so he may need to do alot of isolation.

Yeah I agree with you here, I have a lot of people I train and I always tell them to hop into their max overhead press at the beginning of every workout, I contribute my success to it.

On the negative side shoulder thrust style exercises just kill me. I get that from my dad. On the plus side I have big shoulders anyway.

My shoulders snap crackle and pop while barbel pressing, but don’t when using free weight. I alllso don’t feel anything when doing free weight lifts for shoulders unless it’s laterals.

I’ve found HS press easier on the shoulder joints than barbell, always seem to tweak something with the latter.

Just getting back ro push presses after a long lay off. Looking to get back into strongman. I always had an "it's good for me" overhead lol Im wondering if you've got any advice for actually getting the bar/ axle in a proper front rack position. I genuinely think my forearms are too damn long, so the alternative is having the bar just under my chin and dreaming with a spongy hip drive since the elbows drop a little and I lose some of that vertical power. For reference my best OHPs were a 330 push press. 295 standing strict. And 396 behind the neck push press.

how come no one ever does lateral raises on their side? I do both, It's a 90 degree motion either way and you are getting good tension half of the time either way but different parts get it laying on your side. (it's a good couch workout)

Hey Alex i love your content but just so you know i don’t care about being strong i just want to look big. I know strength is a sign that muscles are growing in size so i do care about progressive overload but that’s the only part of strength I care about

7:30 - some of the down/eccentric of these reps looks a little rushed. Would slowing those down make them better for hypertrophy?
