Standing overhead-pressing (barbell)
Weighted strength-development
•
3m 46s
THE WHAT:
Fundamental overhead-pressing strength development, with a barbell. In comparison to dumbbell or kettlebell contexts, a cumulatively greater load can be used for both greater overall intensity & neurological demand.
This makes them a worthwhile project for maximal-strength development and valuable 'open kinetic-chain' (OKC) alternative/variation to 'closed kinetic-chain' (CKC) projects, namely bodyweight contexts such as the progressive 'Pike pushup' and 'Handstand pushup'.

Loaded-carrying contexts
THE WHAT:
Lifting a heavy load, and walking. Two fundamental facts of life which, at first glance, can seem of insufficient intensity to compare to the likes of a 'Back squat' or 'Deadlift' - but there is a reason why forms of loaded-carrying are a staple of all 'Strongman' events.The load can ...

Overhead (OH) Dumbbell (DB) pressing
THE WHAT:
Basic unilateral (1-arm) and bilateral (2-arm) overhead-pushing contexts performed with dumbbell/s. Rather than main projects of capacity-development practice to themselves, they are ideally used as AUXILIARY tools supporting the development of more intense & neurologically-demanding ov... -
Overhead (OH) Kettlebell (KB) pressing
THE WHAT & HOW:
Basic unilateral (1-arm) and bilateral (2-arm) overhead-pushing contexts performed with kettlebell/s. The distinct difference here compared with dumbbell variations is the fundamental kettlebell-grip and its position, i.e. to the BACK of the arm (other than the 'Bottom-up kettlebe...
