Speed, Strength, Nutcrackers, and the Overhead Press

By Anthony Dream Johnson in Exercise

 
I haven’t performed an overhead press in some time. Bill gets at why in this video, then cracks a walnut. Sounds funny, but not surprisingly, it’s a crystal clear explanation.

    Wow
    didn’t see the walnuts coming.
    This little fragment shows how much I lack of biomechanical knowledge.

    Guess I too will be eliminating the ‘overhead press’.
    Any suggestions I for what I should replace it with?

    A chest press or an incline side arm raise. Bills book Moment Arm Exercise goes further into this.
