In this video we're looking at proper technique on the overhead barbell press. Get my Shoulder Hypertrophy Program 50% off (9. 99) Rise 10mm Lever Belt: Discount JEFF saves Koen van der Post: Hey Jeff (or fellow fans, I was wondering if you could help me with a problem. Often I only do this exercise with dumbbells, as I run into a problem when using a bar. You see I naturally have collar bones that stick out far more than other people I've seen until now. This means that if I try to rest the bar on my chest, it is in fact resting on my collarbones which, as you can image, feels less than pleasant and/or healthy. I've asked bigger guys for advice, but it seems that my body is just build in a way which makes this exercise impossible (or at least until my chest and shoulder muscles get big enough. Thanks for the videos

Whats up guys. Ive never lifted before so i was looking for a train and found one that indicate this move. Although im not sure about it. Ima little insecure of lifting that big bar around while im not an experient lifter myself. So you guys think its ok to just change the 5x5 Overhead by this 2 other moves that he showed on the video with the dumbbells? Im looking for doing a train called 5x5 StrongLifts. I dont know if this matter too but im very skinny, wanna bulk up and have a good cardio (im a mediocre soccer player.

Jeff, Ive had an issue with the barbell overhead press. On the lift, I often find that the bar is not staying parallel to my shoulders on the lift unless I force myself to watch the lift all the way up. I keep my core and glutes contracted for the neutral spine and squared shoulders/hips. Im worried that a previous shoulder injury is causing unconscious compensation. Do you have any recommendations for keeping the bar from slightly twisting on the path up?

Jeff you are one of the better guys out there but i have to correct you. You do not want to suck air into your stomach and press it out in your belly, you will slacken your pelvic floor and then iap is lost anyways. Use the pelvic floor and abs to create the iap instead. Also loose contraction of your pelvic floor and you loose stability of the hipscand pelvic girdle.

Perfect technique. Just one correction though - hold your breath when u press is not a good idea for compound lifts where you are targeting pogressive overload as it causes blackout if you try to hard to push really heavy weights. The best way is to breathe out when pushing the weight up and breathe in as you bring the weights back down to starting position.

This one seems absolutely perfect and reasonable in terms of all the forces involved and safety. Can someone drop a comment about Jeff's vs Mark Rippetoe's technique, in which hips move forward and the bar gets lowered a bit before the final push? Is Mark's technique trying to prepare us for bigger loads? Is it a matter of powerlifting vs hypertrophy?

I love this video. very cool how you show each targeted muscle, in color. this is the first time I see this in weight training video productions. Great learning tool and helpful techniques. thank you Mr Nippard7: 28 I prefer the technique videos. don't care for carrying around a workout manual in a binder at the gym. cheers.

Went to one of the best shoulder doctors in LA yesterday for a cortisone shot. Told me 1: 34 is terrible for shoulders and that the elbows should be tucked in front close to the rib cage (think Arnold press. He's also against barbells and prefers dumbbells with neutral grip just FYI

hello great videoI was wondering. why you recommend not to shrug the shoulder? I it to add more emphasis to the shoulders? I'm asking because for instance in handstand you are supposed to shrug for good technique and shoulder injury prevention. I what is you take on that?
reply

It really doesnt matter how u do it, if you are consistent and you are doing with good form. Lifting shouldnt be that complicated and you know what. it isnt. Along with healthy nutrition you will look great no matter what. You will not change shit with that tweak.
