Just this morning i got extremely frustrated because i couldn't manage to progress my already ridiculously lightweight OHP, and i immediately thought "Later today i'll check if Jeff has done any helpful videos on the matter". I open UA-cam 10 minutes ago and this is literally the very first video on the front page. Upon watching it, now i realize that i always got the bar path wrong and i was actually doing a standing bench press instead of a proper OHP. That's some next-level mind-reading shit
If I talk about a lift 3 times a week on video, you really think at some point I’m not gonna end up talking about the lift you’re doing today? I was doing deadlifts today. Looks like this isn’t relevant at all. Does that prove anything?
From some other videos I think Jeff has some shoulder injury so can't press straight up himself. He doesn't put his head forward under the bar. He knows good form and how to teach it, just can't demonstrate it himself. Plus might as well use Jesse :P
Another thing to note for lack of mobility is the tightness of the lats. Something that really helps me is stretching the lats prior to pressing overhead.
Man, been lifting for 6 months and have never had a pain free day after a shoulder workout until after i saw this vid explaining how the arm moves in the shoulder socket. 🙏🙏🙏 thanks so much huuuuuge help
Recently did this exercise wrong and went through 6 months of nerve damage on my shoulder just for lifting it the wrong way with tilt. I'm finally getting better (this month) and to see a video like this is extremely helpful. Thanks again!
For me shoulders to men is like hips to women, they give you the manly look you want, so for me, the main muscular group I would like to train is shoulder, please don't quit posting shoulder training advises frequently, you rock man so thank you very much
I ran into this problem, 2 frozen shoulders and sciatica later, my gut feeling told me to do this with 2 light dumbbells in the same fashion as the plate, wicked results! Thanks guy's this would be a major problem with most people having shit posture. Well done keep it up!
Ive always hated overhead press since I started lifting weights until I find this exercise gradually fixing my rounded shoulder posture. Now its one of my all time favorite exercise. I can now press more than 40lbs after learning the right way to do it.
I feel like they help my entire upper middle back and traps . The dumbbells hit the rear-delts harder than the barbell overhead press . I do both dumbbells/barbells standing overhead press with a closer-grip. Just pure badass lifts. They complements my bodyweight pull-ups/chin-ups very well.
I really appreciate all the break downs you do. They have really kept me and my lifting friends from making dangerous mistakes that could lead to injuries. Your channel is our gym bible!
Hey Jeff, I just want to thank you for your video about fixing headaches! It really helped me, especially now in lockdown. At the end of the video, you said you would do another video on headaches, looking forward to it!
if go back some years in this vid blog series, you will find that jesse had a shoulder injury. and whats wrong with 11+11+10 = 32 kg? i mean for a "standard" person, who arrives from a state where he barely could press 5?
Hey Jeff. I'm from South Africa..not that it matters but you're all the way in the US giving us great content and I've been watching your videos for years now. It's helped me improve my workouts and techniques and I'm so grateful for that. But I have an issue when performing (tricep) dips and wish you could cover that in a video one day. The little bump on the inside of my elbow pains and it feels as if a tendon keeps popping over that bone with each rep that I do. This is only happening on my left arm. The right elbow is perfectly fine.
Just wanted to drop a thank you -- I'm wearing a nice button-down shirt for Easter and I can see my biceps through it clearly. I feel awesome. You guys are the best!
All this time i was jelous of Jessy because of his opportunity to be able to work so close to you but not this time! Now i m happy to see him not to set the "how not to" do or what's missing from an exercise but setting a good example of the execution of an exercise which proves his development! Good for you mate :)
Hey, Jeff! I really appreciate all the work you and Jesse do. I have a question what you think about Upper Lower split because you didn't talk about it and if you can give us a sample routine? I just think that it would be awesome for us, the people who train that way, to see your advice for Upper Lower style of training.
Jeff, I have old shoulders, so I OHP with a narrow grip and the bar tracks out in front. It makes it a triceps dominant move, but is much easier on the old shoulders. I do a bit of a thruster, then let the triceps do a heavy negative. It's not always a shoulder exercise.
There actually is a better way to do it that people don’t do. You want to completely lean your upper body forward when you’re sitting on the toilet to completely clear everything out effectively. I only know this because I went to PT school because of Jeff
Hey, Jeff. Unparalleled content, as always. Was wondering if you could make a video concerning the two olympic lifts ? It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on biomechanical approach to those exercises and thoughts from PT perspective, possible traumatism etc. Thank you, a loyal follower since 2014 :)
The month of Ramadan will be in next week, If u can make a video about diet or workout during this month, this can really help out a lot of muslims around the world. 😇
@@johnsantony6509 Intermittent fasting is also similar and yet it's one of the most popular fasting methods. But, in a religious context, it's more about abstaining from your desires and lust rather than dieting.
man I thought my shoulder was messed up from years of construction work, I have been trying to flexibility in shoulder for months, this helps a lot. thanx.
Outstanding video...thanx so much. I have torn rotator cuffs/cartilage tears and have to be very careful with my pressing movements but when done correctly help me to build muscle mass to help support my damaged shoulders. This video is a great tip with the warm up plate press.
Hey Jeff, if you have time and read this can you make a video about muscle knots because they are very painful. Thanks and remember to do your facepulls
I hoping you was going to explain how important it was to keep elbows forward because you explained that in another video so we could keep our shoulders healthy. Good information thanks.

Insta loss! Whoooooooo!

Jeff must have implemented microphones into our gym benches when they were manufactured because he always seems to know what we are struggling with
I was literally doing ohp when i checked my notifications and saw this.

Yeah I was just wondering about this last week
So freakishly true lol

The life of your gains becomes longer when you watch athlean x.
In other words longevity is increased
Yep, I don't even have to lift any more. I just watch the vids.
😁😆😅🤣
I never had gains until I listened to him
I like how he makes Jesse do the bad versions of the exercises.
From some other videos I think Jeff has some shoulder injury so can't press straight up himself. He doesn't put his head forward under the bar.
He knows good form and how to teach it, just can't demonstrate it himself. Plus might as well use Jesse :P
Hahahajaha. Gold
@@davids3539 Yeah, I xan see that. I got a shoulder injury playing football and it isn't the same.
It also helps that he isn't doing them with a whole lot of weight too
Lol so true
I like to imagine Jeff's ideas for videos come from watching Jesse workout
Dude.. Respect 🙏
@@sameerkumardash5795 dude joke 🙏🏻
@@justanerdwholiftweights4061 I knw.. I respected the thot process behind the joke.. 😂

I like how Jesse looks like he’s actually learning on the spot when Jeff is explaining everything
Jeff probably gets some of his video ideas from Jesses form deficiencies.
@@StackBundle smart
One day Jeff will retire from fitness, so someone will need to carry the Athlean X brand; my assumption is Jesse will be the guy.
Recently did this exercise wrong and went through 6 months of nerve damage on my shoulder just for lifting it the wrong way with tilt. I'm finally getting better (this month) and to see a video like this is extremely helpful. Thanks again!
This is literally what causes me the most injuries in the gym period. I really want to fix it
@@jessiesineath7702 Literally just stop ego lifting, clearly doing to much weight.

same. OHP is prob my favorite exercise of all
I wish i started doing ohp a lot earlier
@@alexandrudinca3080 better late than never my friend
100% agree dude. Many would say lats but for me, shoulders is the way. The combo traps, shoulders and pecs are the gold trio imo.
@@Darth_Mik6 toss in a good shoulder to hips ratio and ur a greek god
That's Athlean-X! Telling WHAT to do and showing WHY 👍
I ran into this problem, 2 frozen shoulders and sciatica later, my gut feeling told me to do this with 2 light dumbbells in the same fashion as the plate, wicked results! Thanks guy's this would be a major problem with most people having shit posture. Well done keep it up!
I've been working on my overhead press so I can do my job better so this is super helpful!! I'm going to incorporate this.
Ditto
UPS?
jeff is like if my anatomy teacher was jacked and kept talking about workouts in class
We would all listen and most likely pass the class if that were the case.
Haha yeah
Is your teacher always shirtless?
Ive always hated overhead press since I started lifting weights until I find this exercise gradually fixing my rounded shoulder posture. Now its one of my all time favorite exercise. I can now press more than 40lbs after learning the right way to do it.
Good stuff!
How have you made any gradual progress with this exercise when this video was posted less than 30 mins ago
@@SirRisGilleo Im referring to overhead press my friend. And this will be an addition whenever Ill do OHP
This just saved my life thank you Jeff
OHP is my favorite exercise by far. No single exercise did more to improve my physique than this one.
I just started doing them and i feel like a king when i do lol.
I feel like they help my entire upper middle back and traps . The dumbbells hit the rear-delts harder than the barbell overhead press . I do both dumbbells/barbells standing overhead press with a closer-grip. Just pure badass lifts. They complements my bodyweight pull-ups/chin-ups very well.
They make me feel like an old timey strong man
Do a series with exercises for old people. make them less prone to injury.
either someone applies as a specimen for demonstration, or we have to wait 14y or so....
Damn after few classes of anatomy such a vid hits different.
I really appreciate all the break downs you do. They have really kept me and my lifting friends from making dangerous mistakes that could lead to injuries. Your channel is our gym bible!

At the end of the video, you said you would do another video on headaches, looking forward to it!
I wish I could go back in time 5 years and show myself this video ... Jeff is on a whole another level!
At first I was astounded at the ease Jeff and Jessie moved that large green plate, then I looked at the weight stamp..under 5kg!
Oh my.
Yeah what on earth are these crazy plates?? The 10 in fact only weighs 4.5... The 15s weigh 11??? None of this makes sense!
if go back some years in this vid blog series, you will find that jesse had a shoulder injury.
and whats wrong with 11+11+10 = 32 kg? i mean for a "standard" person, who arrives from a state where he barely could press 5?
You're awesome. I'm a Strongman in training. Thanks! OHP is vital!
@AVMav I did. I am still drinking a gallon of whole milk a day. Rippetoe's advice.
Thanks Jeff and Jessie, theses short tips and reminders are always great.
Jeff, you're mastering the human body while kicking ass as an entrepreneur. That's pretty inspiring, dude.

I actually thought when he said there is one exercise that fixes everything, he'd bring out the face pull
Jeff is on the run to fix all my GYM problems and answer all my questions, BIG THANKS TO YOU MAN
4:57 still a better chemistry than between Jack and Rose
geeeyyyy
This is actually a very helpful for handstands. Thanks
Legend says that everytime Jeff goes for a walk he has a dumbbell in between his legs to create tension and stimulates muscle growth
Is that a dumbbell in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
Jeff and Jesse are thw most dedicated fitness channel on this website. Nuff said
2:51 Looks like Jessie's eyes are about to pop out😂
Just wanted to drop a thank you -- I'm wearing a nice button-down shirt for Easter and I can see my biceps through it clearly. I feel awesome.
You guys are the best!
I'm going to apply that to my workout routine right away! Always great advice!
Thank you sir, yes sir. Curious about another resistance band and or dumbell rowing ideas for the back.
The worst is hitting your chin when going up 🤣🦍
No, the worst thing is hitting the bridge of your nose on the way down.
Or hitting your head going down sweating so much you think you cleared and you didn't.
@@neilmarshall2403 for realllll🤣🤣
@@STORYVIBE882 yeah, for real. Got careless on a warm up set. It hurt but being that stupid hurt more!
Bruised the underside of my chin! Send a picture to my daughter and asked her to guess which body part it was. 😜
amazing lewandoski from the court to the gym. what a humility and modesty
I really appreciate you incorporating the skeleton to show how this works well. Very informative.
Thank you Jeff! I’m new to the community. Very grateful for the ride🙏🏾
I like the in-depth explanation you give to the press movement. I have been doing that as you explained but not trully knowing why. Thank you.

Thank you for this Easter blessing father Jeff
Was just watching your CT Fletcher tricept rep off, always glad to see a new video pop up!
I seriously thought he was gonna say - "do your face pulls"
Even sitting at my desk and imitating the plate press overhead I was able to raise up my arms higher. Great tips, cheers!

Love your videos Sir! These little pointers are awesome 👏😎
Jeff, why have you forgot me
You read my mind man I was watching your shoulder press videos yesterday.
You are my inspiration!
Jeff back at it again, helping men get 'it' up
I really wished you talked about the lower back in this movement in particular
Jeff, I have old shoulders, so I OHP with a narrow grip and the bar tracks out in front. It makes it a triceps dominant move, but is much easier on the old shoulders. I do a bit of a thruster, then let the triceps do a heavy negative. It's not always a shoulder exercise.
4:11 = when I just want to workout in peace and this random guy just won't shut up trying to make conversation mid series
Another great instruction!
Jeff is a type of guy who tells us how to s=it in the perfect form
What if i told you that it's killing your
Perfect form is everything my dude 😂
There actually is a better way to do it that people don’t do. You want to completely lean your upper body forward when you’re sitting on the toilet to completely clear everything out effectively. I only know this because I went to PT school because of Jeff
@@garrett3726 you actually need to be in a full squat too
Reminds me of a friend of mine that bought a squatty potty.
Really needed this. I was just struggling with the overhead press today.
Man never been this early for a Jeff upload!
i'm a PT and i love your videos. good work!
More total body dumbbell workouts!!
Can you do a video for snapping scapula syndrome?

This is why I favor dumbbells for shoulder press. I makes it easier to have more depth and control for me.
I wish I had this video 7 years ago when I started lifting... took me 4 years to figure out why I couldnt do this.
Tried this yesterday and it worked perfectly!
*My girlfriend telling me to go deeper*
Me: That’s as far as it goes!
After hours upon hours of watching his videos...I came to the conclusion my whole gym life was a lie
Thanks for the education and helping in preventing an injury
Congrats to everyone who is Early and who found this comment 😇😇
Congrats you back 🙏🏼
Jeff has widely improved my vocabulary
Face pulls is just two words 😅💪
