Does this really belongs on TRP? I know that is important to lift but there are already a lot of places to discuss fitness.

Does your question really belong on TRP? If you don't like it down vote. Don't have to try to moderate me.

Just dont press from the back, be sure to press from the chest. And if it hurts, stop!

[–]fuckin_retard 3 points3 points3 points 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

And if it hurts, stop!

Key point. You have to know the difference between good pain (muscle fatigue) and bad pain (tendons, bones, ligaments strain). Fight through "good pain", and never fight through bad pain. you will regret it. Ask my knees

I m curious about the wide grip too. Also ohp is one of my favorite exercises and I do them standing up, they are killer!

If you cannot do a BTN press due to lack of flexibility, you are very likely to develop rotator cuff problems, due to great disparity in strength/flexibility in the external vs internal rotator muscle groups.

A great book that saved me from surgery is "The 7 minute rotator cuff solution."

Guess I'll go back to standing

[–]Idontlikekarmawhores0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

A tl;Dr of the articles and studies please? I love over head press standing up!

[–]Axotl 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

An overhead press performed standing versus seated requires more stability.

An overhead press performed standing versus seated results in a lower 1RM.

The majority of overhead pressing exercises requiring the greatest stability (standing and/or with dumbbells) demonstrated greater neuromuscular activity in the deltoid muscles as compared to exercises performed seated and/or with a barbell.

The standing barbell press activates the biceps and triceps brachii to a greater extent than the seated barbell press and either the seated or standing dumbbell press.
