Respect for being honest and talking about the potential drawbacks of only doing AD presses, even though it’s a lift that you yourself popularised in the community. <br>Too many influencers out there are dogmatic and promote their way as the “best” way, without nuance.

Great takeaways on the overhead press discussed. I like how you mentioned fatigued / injury from personal experience bro

As a combat athlete, the OHP (strict and push) and weighted pull-ups have been fundamental to building upper-body strength while maintaining a stable weight and being injury-resistant. The gains are slower, but I’m also practicing my sport 4-6x/week. I got the ideas here.<br><br>I fucking appreciate your knowledge, Alex. As always, RESPECT.

I'll never stop doing standing OHP. It's just too much fun. Probably my favorite lift.

I can absolutely relate to OHP being essential for rotator cuff health, I think NH was bang on the money with that take.
