Push Presses
:
Use a heavier than normal weight, continue to do repetitions of shoulder
presses after reaching a point of failure; helps to build additional
deltoid strength.
It is a
cheating principle exercise. You may use it in power training to lift a
barbell that you would normally find it too heavy to use for strict
shoulder presses. You can also use the push press to do forced reps at
the end of a set, when you are too exhausted to continue to do strict
shoulder press reps.
1) Hold a
barbell with an overhand grip, hands slightly wider than shoulder width
apart, clean the weight up to shoulder height.
2) Bend your
knees slightly and then press up with your legs to get the bar moving.
3) Use the
additional impetus to press the bar up overhead. Lock it, slowly lower
once more to shoulder position.
