ReplyDeleteThis is my current focus. Last week I finally pushed 205 strict over head. Haven't done that in over a year. All of your advice on pressing technique and frequency has been nothing short of snortable gold!
ReplyDeleteI hope to press as soundly as you do eventually. While I'm focusing on top end strength with 3s & 5s how would you propose bringing up the repetition strength?
I can do 5x3 with 155 easy enough, back offs of 3x10+ usually fall out after the first set..
Then go with 3's and 5's. Play to your strength.
Deleteany tips for relieving elbow pain? always comes when I begin pushing overhead work for strongman. Any advice greatly welcomed.cheers
ReplyDelete100 rep curls twice a week. never fails.
DeleteHey Paul,
ReplyDeleteAny word on the BBM project? Are you still training 3 days per week? I see that you alternate between flat bench, incline, and BTN for your pressing days, unless you're posting them on days that you don't actually train.
work on it has been slow but steady. My rotation is what it is because I am on the zenith program in the book. Why do you think I've been hitting so many PR's? My ideas are things I use and find productive. Not just things that sound good on paper.
DeleteFor what it's worth, your ideas look good on paper, too.
DeleteLOL thanks man.
DeleteCheers, I started doing 100 rep curls but gave up due to not manning up enough. I'll add em back an and persevere. Much obliged.
