Super heavy lift Cliff! Great lifts everyone. The Press is a classic strength movement. Dan John, a strength and conditioning specialist, says there are three ways to get stronger: Pick up something heavy off the ground. Pick up something heavy off the ground and put it over your head. Pick up something heavy off the ground and walk with it. We love overhead at CFSF, and encourage everyone to learn to embrace it by carrying anything you can in an active overhead position while moving equipment around the gym.

There is a lot going on with the Press. From positioning, to stability, many cues to think about. Don't be overwhelmed. Practice. With each successive session things will continue to get dialed on. We had several puppies pressing for form, not reps. Good job puppies. Great presses.
