Quite a balancing act there!🤪💪

Yes it was tough 😂 ive not done any bottoms up kbell work in months and these plates being so wide made it very top heavy. Its a risky lift as if the plates slip at the top 🤯

You might consider performing these single-arm banded dumbbell overhead presses with a monkey grip (thumbless). Initially it will be awkward and will require a stronger grip (stronger pinch via your four fingers) but this will allow the wrist to be closer to a stronger (healthier) neutral position and thus avoid/minimize that extreme wrist bend you are battling with at the top of the movement (especially when fighting the increasing resistance of the band near to lockout).  Any/all heavy loaded movements with extreme wrist bend (whether it be extension or flexion) will catch-up with you sooner than later and rarely in a good way... believe me I learned the hard way in this regards. Best to minimize this extreme wrist bend to a few key exercises at very low volume; with less ending (lockout) resistance; and in a position where you can better (more safely) control the bend and bail quickly when/if required. Food for thought.

Any how, really enjoying your short vids. Your hands/forearms are looking mighty strong. Great work mate! Cheers and respects.
