00:00:00.000Greetings, children. Today I want to quickly elaborate a bit on why I prefer the push press towards the strict press.
00:00:21.000And that code is simple. Honour the gods, love your woman, protect your country.
00:00:30.000Okay, that was not really the answer to it. The reason is quite simple indeed. It's because it's easier to progress.
00:00:40.000We all know, I think everyone who's watching this, I think like 80% of all guys who are watching this knows the fucking feel when stall on overhead press.
00:00:50.000It is really, really hard to progress on it. It is. That's a known fact. It's a notorious fact.
00:00:59.000So, for me, when I began stalling on the strict military press, I switched to push press because it's easier to progress there.
00:01:08.000And I became stronger. And as a result of me becoming stronger in the push press, I also got stronger overall and stronger in the stricter press.
00:01:19.000Now, I'm not strong in the strict press still. I am stronger, not strong.
00:01:24.000But for me, it is the case that I want to progress there.
00:01:29.000If I can progress in the push press, but I can't progress in the strict press, it doesn't really matter that much that the strict press might take more exclusively on the shoulders.
00:01:40.000I just want to move heavy weights and that's also because, yes, I want the shoulders to grow.
00:01:45.000So, yeah, let's talk a bit about that as well since it might be prudent to do now.
00:01:51.000If you're on big shoulders, the same rules applies as with anything.
00:01:55.000Push a lot. Push frequently. Push with the mindset that you're gonna progress.
00:02:00.000So, that's the important key here. Now, obviously, bench press is great for shoulders as well.
00:02:07.000When you pause, obviously, it primarily hits the chest, but the triceps and the shoulders get a good going as well.
00:02:14.000Then you can add lateral rises like that. A really good exercise.
00:02:20.000And then, obviously, some sort of overhead press.
00:02:24.000And in that regard, I just happened to prefer the push press because I can progress easier in that.
00:02:32.000So, short informative video. Leave a comment if you like. Like the video.
00:02:38.000If you haven't subscribed already, you're wrong and I hate you. No, seriously. But do it.
00:02:43.000It's so I can reach like 20,000 or something soon. It would be cool. It would be fine.
00:02:48.000Then I can celebrate with something epic and make an epic video out of it.
00:02:53.000Either fucking way. Thanks for watching.
