JoshW Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 (edited) Pressing your BW is no easy task man strong! I recently pressed 165lbs above my head at 165lbs BW and I got stuck at the same point as you! But felt good finally locking out Edited June 21, 2015 by JoshW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royz Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Epic struggle to get that through the sticking point. Well done! How do you train overhead press? I've been hitting a brick wall in my progress for basically 3 years now. Best I've done is 1x90kg (198lbs), but I want to get to a body weight press as well. This would be 105kg (231lbs).

EricMilfeld Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 That's a feat to be proud of, David! I've always struggled with overhead pressing and am envious of guys like you pressing body weight and above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Royz!!As of now my overhead training is 2 times a week clean and press with barbell. I work up to a near max for the day then drop to 80-90% for 3 sets of 1-3 pending on the day to finish up. I just added some reverse grip benching in the mix to see if this does anything for my tricep strength...You said you pressed 198lbs, that's very impressive weight!!
