Its no secret my friend

I feel like front loaded movements are the secret to engaging the glutes. like front squats with heavy kettlebells or sandbags, zercher squats, even the split squat deadlift with heavy kettlebells or sandbags, even the kneeling hip thrust to lunge up, shoulder loaded w/sandbags.

@@marcusmcevoy1797 BS I just found this channel today. I came from untamed strength.

Jaegerjaquez ?

It's an awesome channel for learning exercise variations... whenever I'm switching things up I go to his vids to get ideas

@Alex I would consider myself an advanced to elite presser... in my opinion I would definitely not do slow negatives and isometric holds with a barbell military. Military and push pressing is a power move. Once you start loosening up you are more prone to injury and pains just like the bench. If you bench and military explosively with solid form and tightness, you're at less risk for injury and tweaks. Use the machines and dumbells for light isometric stuff. Good luck.

would you flex your glutes the entire time ? do you let go at the top position ?

this, squeezing the shit out and exploding is my #1 cue

@@lejohnbrames flex your glutes the entire time start to finish

It's almost ASMR for me. I could sleep in a gym if other people were lifting. Kind of like Joe Pesci in My Cousin Vinnie sleeping in the jail. LOL

Vlad Khomutov Always man.

I have bumper plates, they do sound nice when you load them onto the bar though.

I do...very soothing.

i'm not sure if your heart would withstand that. Start with 2% and follow linear progression 0.25% per workout.

@@tttyyy949 Definitely. Gotta apply that progressive overload. Haha

Gluteos

Right? Biggest takeaway for me from the video!

For future reference, he talks about it at 9:40

Yeah. Push press seems help my strict press for the lockout. Using heavy weight by getting help from the leg drive in the bottom part and about half way to lock out is all ur strength

It's called the Lieutnant Dan's Press

Hooray!!! Awesome video!

You and Brian should roll next time he comes out!

@ryan rogers idk Nsima looks pretty athletic himself but it really comes down to experience.. it would be more fun to see either of the two strangle Mark Bell lol

To be clear zero hate for Mark Bell... though it did take like 3 weeks to get my Elbow Sleeves... for Petes sake it was a fathers day gift

The "natty professor" Looks soo natty.. yet more jacked than mark 😂

I will never refer to them as anything else again. That is SO much better!

@@brianfox340 😂

Oh hey! It's Alena. You n Brian seem like great people 😁

Man, 145Ib at 115 is no joke. Impressive!

That’s incredible pound for pound strength!

Is that recommended only when wearing a belt?

@@NeuronActivation no, without belt as well. I'll be doing it every rep rather than every 3 reps; that's too long for me

@@bassemb Maybe because you're lifting too heavy.

The longer you can go with one breath is better. If you have to breath every rep you're either focused too much on breathing or you're pressing your 3 rep max.

It's not an easy movement, but it's definitely a beastly movement.

Most people arent used to this. And the focus is obv on the butt, but with the Overhead press, you should FLEX EVERYTHING. Called hyperidiation. You are the strongest when everything you flex everything

Man you’re a little late Check 2-3 years ago When he was a little fatter and silent mile was there That was the golden age

@@kelevra4774 Brian is bringing the golden age back But the Ed Coan, Quiet Michael era had some sagely advice

@@kelevra4774 Gives me PLENTY of good videos to keep watching then!!! Not a little late, just in time because now I get to watch all of those videos you are talking about for the first time... jeaalous? :b jk

indy789 are you white?

@@clenjones5748 His teeth definitely are

Jeewantha Bandara hopefully he is too!

loool just did a workout yesterday and was doing push presses to grind the last few reps...do you think it helps in progressing up the weight?

Definitely my favorite lift, I haven't been training it for very long.

I agree If someone has underdeveloped delts (the main reason you'd ohp) and triceps and has a bench plateau then it's a great lift to build

triceps are the key to almost any big push movement, everyone can benefit with a bit more of triceps strength !

eat bro!! haha

Good overall everyday, every exercise starter bar that won't let you down is the rogue bar 2.0. Medium knurling, not much whip under at all under 350lbs, good finish and affordable.

Yeah same here, the clean and press is more or less my main excercise.

Ed Jones that’s how I learned to press by rippetoe. The way to grip the bar instantly got the rod of my wrist pain 😉

Shaine MacDonald same here my grip is always the edge of the knurl. Yet when you see big over head pressers they always go near the rings. I’m scared to adjust it incase I’m weaker 😩😩

Same. I simply cannot lock out the same weight with that perfectly vertical grip. I've been experimenting with grip width on this for a long time, and just outside vertical works best for me.
