I love people who think form is everything. THATS BULLSHIT. Form doesn't mean anything in means of just hitting the correct muscle. Your form is your way of creating that muscle to mind connection best, that's why people who worry and complain constantly about form will never be the biggest they can achieve
@YaMumYaNanYaGran Towards the end of the set I like to touch the bar to feel if he needs help, if you wait with your arms by your side and then suddenly assist with the lift it creates a jerking motion which can put some people off. By touching the bar you can assist as soon as you need to and keep the repetition as one fluid movement so it feels natural.
You suck man. I weigh 50 pounds and can Military Press 600 pounds with one hand. No seriously, great work and keep it up. Don't listen to the haters who don't post videos themselves.
dang im suprised at this.. like.. i just looked up 225 military press because i wanted to see how big the people were who did this.. I'm 165 and 5'8" and can do 220 6-8 times.. im not small, but im not his size
@stracinsrt4 I don't think there is any good way to compare, but standing (if your form is strict) is definitely harder than sitting. Personally, I find 225 for a single while standing more impressive than 5 reps sitting.
i was thinking the same thing despite the name of the video. i was waiting for the guy to do 10+ reps, not struggle and get spots for 3 of 5. Camera must be generous here..?
ermm how is he being a retarded spotter, he's doing exactly what a good spotter should do, and that is let the person max out without helping him, and being there just incase. you can see the guy didnt really need spotting, and so he didnt, now your the retard for saying thatt, and this is actually easier than standing, since you have a back support!!
Gotta disagree sitting is harder than standing because you are totally isolating your shoulders. When standing you can easily use your legs to help you, possibly without even noticing.
technically that would be called a push press if any leg drive us used, a proper military press involves no momentum at all. So yes if you did use your legs to drive, it would probably make it easier than seated where you only have the advantage of a back support but strict form military press are harder imo : )
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
his shoulder press isnt the strongest around bud...... didnt say this kid henry that i train can pull a 500+ DL or a big squat like him but he can for sure hit 225 for 10 because we trained them today so hes stronger than ever, its amazing what anavar and Dbol will do for the body
awesome brother.I hope ican do this in 5 years.The machine for shoulders in my gym sucks.the bench is not adjustable and the back support is way for back.Even people wont spot me for this thing saying its too much for them to spot.
Man whatever. To do that seated is very impressive. I'd be willing to bet that most of the people that post the negative comments haven't even seen the inside of a gym. Keep doing what ya doing big man, and let the haters keep doing their jobs.
and STFU you have no clue what your talking about. That kind of ROM screws up your rotator cuffs my friend. Do some more research. Bskola your form was great bro, nice lift
not bad weight on your Smith machine but your kidding yourself if you think you only subtract 10%. You would not be able to do 225lb on free weight for 4 reps and that is more than 10%.
helps to have a spotter. i know its pretty well impossible for me to get the weight off the rack without tearing open my abs or straining a shoulder. spotter helps big time.
everyone nit picks at everything on these videos.. shut the fuck up.. no one in this world does absolute perfect form, theres so such thing.. people have different preferences how to do an excercise, close grip, wide grip whateva.. keep your gay bullshit to yourselves
its decent but I personally feel military press should be done vertically, its clear this lift isnt its either a declined seated overhead press or a well-inclined bench press. I prefer to also take it all the way down - some ppl say it causes injury etc but thts jus cos their upper body muscles lack flexibiliy/not stretching. good lifting tho solid strength.
If it where behind the neck, there would be a great chance for injury, but in front of the neck, the bar really should touch the chest/clavicle with very little chance for injury. At least this guy did a nice job of controlling it. Lots of guys just slop through.
Good lifts but I like to go down farther on mine because it hits more upper chest and shoulders and less tris. Check out my vid of me doing standing military, I get a hard 15 set with 135lbs.
Probably best to do the overhead press seated. It then becomes JUST a shoulder exercise because the lower body is then isolated. But obviously more weight can be handled in the standing position.
its true story Doing it seated isolated the shoulder so its only a shoulder workout and you cant give your self a boost like you can whilst standing so its harder but good for its isolation
that looked easy, why don't you do it standing like a MILITARY PRESS with zero leg drive, what you are doing is a seated shoulder press. I have no doubt you will prolly nail at least 225 x 1 strict military press, the challenging part is for you to powerclean the weight off the floor first and then strict press it, sorts the skirts from the men. Good work.
his grip sems a bit wide(not sure if t hat matters) but that is one fucking insane lift i am pretty strong myself and can do 155 for 6(possible7) reps, his military is like my bench, or even more! dayum
what's the proper way to do shoulder press do u go down to your chin or lower I always get different opinions on this. Why is Janet Jackson playing in the background?
it's all on preference as long as you go down an inch or 2 below 90. going down to the chest is a good way to fuck up your sholder but some guys do it that way
Not a big one, if you do them behind your neck your trapezius muscle will be trained more and if you do them infront of your neck you shoulder muscles have to work more. Do it in front of your neck, its better.
Hey, some people, like me, pack on muscle real easy, so they look huge but don't really lift proportionate weights. It also has to do with how you train. I trained like a bodybuilder 6-10 reps for years and got lots of muscle growth, but now I'm switching to strength (1-6 reps) training so that I can actually lift what I look like I should lift.
Yea that guy is pretty damn strong. It takes quite awhile to develop overhead strength. But I would look at that as a very high incline bench, you can tell his shoulders arent really responsible for pushing that weight. I would be curious to see what he could standing overhead press for 5 reps. I bet he would be doing 185x5
hey guys, maybe hes doesnt do this exercise much, im sure if he dedicated his life to this exercise like some people do with bench he'd be doin 300 for reps.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Im really not all that impressed... he's too big to struggle with such a small weight. as Far as the spotter goes. I dont think he should touch the bar, but if hes not really helping it wouldnt matter
That was great and all.. but I would have liked to see him do it without the spotter touching the bar.. because even just the slightest help.. helps a bunch. Anybody who lifts would agree!
Nice lift and your form was excellent, going down any farther only injures the rotator. That's just as far as I go down and it works the shoulders hard.
I think the technique was near perfect. I bet the big guy wanted to build more medial delt mass so he wasnt goin down too low. As someone above said... if it makes u grow.. Do it!
nice lift, It doesn't matter if you keep the bar an inch or two off your chest. You don't need to listen to these people I mean you've obviously got results from what you do. Keep lifting hopefully I'll be at that weight some day. Right now my max is about 225 on military.
By the way DLStar64 I wasn't trying to preach bro just friendly advice from a workout guy to a workout partner,I don't go all heavy I try to build the muscle 'till it's strong on it's own,but heavy enough,I have my 4rep days on military press but all the way down full contraction,it's all trial and error baby my delts weren't responding to the chin but this amature BB showed me the way, ever since can't complain but to grow.
Stevebc has a point, DlStar64, I used to do a what bskola did to the chin, but try going all the way down to u're clavicals meaning to u're upper chest I even touch it not [bounce] barely touch, and go all the way up shy of locks,since I 've been doing them like that my delts started growing like a weed ecsp front delts crazy and I had previously rotator cuff injuries too but it doesn't bother me if I go all the way down,try it next time, u'll like it but warmup theroughly.
full ROM? what the fuck are you smoking? any farther and your supraspinatus would be contracting so much with that heavy of weight, and that could easily lead to rotator cuff injuries. good form m8.
I don't need to show you. I can tell you that you lower the bar to your chest for full ROM. In that way you lower the risk of getting hurt and also recruit more muscle fibres.
Sure standing is harded but 225 military press is still rly heavy, so if u all haters crying about him sitting, go do it standing or stfu imo.

By the way DLStar64 I wasn't trying to preach bro just friendly advice from a workout guy to a workout partner,I don't go all heavy I try to build the muscle 'till it's strong on it's own,but heavy enough,I have my 4rep days on military press but all the way down full contraction,it's all trial and error baby my delts weren't responding to the chin but this amature BB showed me the way, ever since can't complain but to grow.

Stevebc has a point, DlStar64, I used to do a what bskola did to the chin, but try going all the way down to u're clavicals meaning to u're upper chest I even touch it not [bounce] barely touch, and go all the way up shy of locks,since I 've been doing them like that my delts started growing like a weed ecsp front delts crazy and I had previously rotator cuff injuries too but it doesn't bother me if I go all the way down,try it next time, u'll like it but warmup theroughly.

full ROM? what the fuck are you smoking? any farther and your supraspinatus would be contracting so much with that heavy of weight, and that could easily lead to rotator cuff injuries. good form m8.

I don't need to show you. I can tell you that you lower the bar to your chest for full ROM. In that way you lower the risk of getting hurt and also recruit more muscle fibres.
