I want to be Brian Alsruhe when I grow up.
Many have tried and many have failed my friend ahahah! Be the best YOU!
Brian Alsruhe no thanks we’ll just be you
Fantastic video Brian! Love these variations

Brian: I don't like sitting on the ground pressing, if you have legs use 'em!
Me: Oh, he's probably not a fan of Z pressing
Brian: If I had someone do assistance for pressing, I'd have them do Z press. It's one of the best.
Me: -__-
Misspoke man, I meant sitting on a chair,.
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial I'm giving you a hard time man. Couldn't resist!
but what about the Kona Press?
"I hope you guys found this useful." Spoiler alert: we did.
Dude the fact that youre constantly puking and still training is so inspiring!!! Stay strong brother!
Brian as always thank you for the energy and the great training ideas.
Thanks for the tips Brian! I've been struggling with the OHP and after watching this have realized my weak point is the lockout. Will definitely be adding pin presses into the routine. Thanks for the consistent informative content
Hey, Brian, I just want to thank you for being such a positive, generous guy with your knowledge. You're giving so much to the community of people who want to move heavy shit, and you set an amazing example for people to be their most badass, nicest self.
Also more Kona plz.
Yet another great video, thank you for continuing to put out quality content so frequently Coach.
The concept of throwing and catching the weight has blown my mind. I never thought of it in those terms but as I've experimented with this, the amount I can put over my head has increased dramatically. And I am far from good at it. Man.... thank you so much. Much love and respect.
Just got an strict OHP PR last week, now I have more variations to help build that along with my push press, thanks Brian!
Simply the best channel in the business. Thank you man.
Not a strongman or powerlifter but have learnt so so much from this channel as a recreational trainer... way more than from b/bing channels
Just had my 2nd coffee of the day and this vid is getting me so hyped up to go try some pressing variations.
Thank you
Glad I found this channel. Appreciate your approach here, thanks for sharing!
The quality of this video is the best you've put out
Apprecieate your work Brian!
Best fitness channel
I found out that push press teached me how to use legdrive in benching 100x better than benching itself :D
Awesome video again Brian ! Love this series on exercise variations.
I'm glad strong people like you and Mr Shaw like the Trap bar OHP. Been doing thoses since I acquired my Trap bar as a main movement. Keep it up ! We know you're grinding like a madman these days and it shows ! :)
Can't wait to add these to my routine when my shoulder gets better. Thanks!
The quality of every one of Brian's videos is totally unreal. Damn dude.
That is really cool of you to say, thank you!
Great choice of location to shoot the video. Loved seeing the neversate banner in the background. Great content and presentation as always.
OHP is always so humbling. Thanks for the quality video brian!
Thanks for watching them!
This video has given me some great ideas Brian. Thank you! I'm recovering from an AC joint sprain so I've been really apprehensive about pressing again and just got back into it with light weight. I'm going to add some of these in for volume to really get my shoulder girdle stronger than ever and come back as a meat beast haha
Love your stuff brother! Keep strong!
Great video thanks for all the information!
Thanks Brian!
This is a very informative video, thanks!
very awesome and informative video, I truly appreciate all these videos they tremendously help a lot
Always like the OHP videos since it’s my worst of the big 4. Thanks man
@Brian Alsruhe is there anything you can not do!. Great video man, I am a huge fan of your channel. Keep up the good work.
Good I wish you the best Brian
Amazing
I’m so glad it helped
Love these videos
Thanks. I found this video that you recommended to me to help me understand the benefits of using more weight with leg drive over using less weight without leg drive.
Loving this channel.
Great content
One of the best!
Thank you so much!
Someday once I get over my own health and financial issues i'm going to buy and complete one of your programs. It's gonna be awesome.
Good video Brian. Never thought about doing a different press other than the strict press.
Superb!
Great video. Definitely going to try that variation on the Arnold Press next shoulder workout.
Power!!!
I’ve been running the Darkhorse program for about 9 weeks and just hit 62.5kg x 1 on a Z press. 9 weeks ago, my standing max was 60.
So either I don’t lose much in my Z press or darkhorse is magic hahah. Either way, it’s an extremely fun program and I love how you’ve solved the problem of movement frequency that the usual conjugate method has.
Literally one week ago I changed my primary overhead lift for the next 12 weeks to the push press from strict press. Aside from stabilizing overhead, I think the overloaded negative of bringing the weight back down to my shoulders will help immensely with my strict press. Time to go reprogram the rest of my assistance work. :)
I've been watching your videos for a couple months now and you're changing the game for me. You're improving lives, brother. Thanks for everything you do.
That's so great man, thanks for watching them!
Also the Sotts press in clean or snatch grip is great for shoulder strength to!
Thanks for helping me get stronger
one accessory I enjoy after logs is the seated unsupported dumbell shoulder press for volume. boy oh boy does it hit well
best series💪💪💪
great advice as always mate, gonna try a couple of these out today! luckily i work at a gym where we have access to all this equipment and can rig up a trap bar in the power rack, that looks awesome, thanks man!
Amazing content Brian 👍🏻
Thank you so much!
Excellant stuff!
I've been looking for a new shoulder assistance movement, and I'm going to try the trap bar OHP today! Great video!
Somebody needs to get a Nobel Prize for that trap bar overhead press idea great video. I'm trying my best to do the 4 horsemen program and these videos help alot so thank you Brian
And get well soon brutha
Sinserly: future MI Strongest Man 😎
Very good video. I want to try pressing the trap bar now
Good video, very good. So much info. I take notes of everything you said. Thank you sir.
Thanks for watching it!
Praying for some good news on your health soon. Thanks for continuing to share the knowledge and entertainment
My man great info 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I feel like I've waited my entire life for this video.
Thanks for not screaming at us first thing , love the content bro keep it up
Thanks for watching it!
my favorite presses: circus press, 1-db strict press, strict press, push press, split jerk, javelin press, hanging weight barbell press,
Youre good, Mr. Alsruhe
Great video man, OHP is one of my worst lifts. Im deffinently going to try some of these variations
Thank you so much Brian. I'll be incorporating several points of this instruction into my home gym dumbbell routine. At 57 and weighing 150 lbs, I could stand a bit of advice on how to handle progressing the weight.
Currently battling to press 60 lb dumbbells, and it's a mix between hilarity and horror to watch the "old man" go for it. So as we've discussed before...gratitude.
Be well brother and Shine On 🙏🏻
57 and 150 lbs, and you are pressing 60lb dumbells!?! That's huge man! Did you increase?
Yep, this one's definitely going in the book of accessories. Nice breakdown Brian.
I am glad it helped!
Work out in the cellar and don't have a power rack. So, drilled some pieces of 2 x 8 to accept a piece of 1 1/2" steel pipe. Cut the pipe to length so it would fit between the joists overhead. put a piece of 2 x 8 over each end of the pipe, slid them up between the joists and bolted the 2 x 8 to the joists. I use 2 ten foot lengths of 3/8 chain and some carabiners to form loops hanging from the pipe overhead. I suspend the bar in the two loops of chain. I can vary the height of the bar using the caribiner to change the length of the loop of chain. This is a great set up for doing partial or full reps for almost any exercise. I've worked with 500 pounds on the bar with no problems. Where there's a will there's a way. Brian, thanks for all you do and share, you're a great inspiration for all of us.
Gonna have to try these push press and push jerk variations during my workout today since my strict OHP has been stalled for a few weeks now. Thanks!
It will definitely help!
Been thinking about trap bar press... now Bugenhagen, you, and now you’re telling me Brian Shaw all like it?
I know what I’m doing this Wednesday.
Been doing them for a little over a year now and I love them!
Trap Bar Z-Press :)
7:10 relationship goals
hahaha! And get me your answers back so I can get you your program man! It's in your email! hahaha
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial I'll have it to you by the end of the day for sure
Just ran across this guy. Very likable with great content ! Thank you. Will subscribe and follow
Was familiar with everything here....except the "Z" press! Thanks for showing this really interesting variation; I can't wait to be absolutely humbled by it :)
Literally love your advice. Also, as a veteran from UK I love seeing the Invictus Games flag
As far as racking the trap bar, if you have access to a yoke with j cups (Rogue, I think Titan too), you can remove the center crosspiece and just move the uprights closer. Not quite as stable as a power rack but like Brian said you won't be using as much weight on the trap bar press.
5th week of my program and making GAINZ!!!
I’ve always wondered if overhead pressing with the trap bar was a thing! Will try this soon
nice
Thanks!
I wanna strict press at least my bodyweight before my next birthday. Currently can press 80% of my bodyweight. Thanks for the variations Brian!
Nothin' but strict press for the past 6 months. Time to bump the weight up! Thanks, Brian. Always an inspiration.
100% will help man!
Squat q&a question. Have you ever had issue with hitting depth? If so what are some mobility exercises that can help? Love your channel man!
In the squat, yes? Just take some weight off the bar and concentrate on hitting depth. Tempo, box, and pause work can really help. Keep the weight on the bar at a level you can actually lift out of the hole without getting squirrelly, and concentrate on hitting depth every single time. Couple of weeks and it'll be habit.
For the past two months I had been making all kinds of gains. But i currently have an infection in the coccyx area and Im going to need surgery. Brian you motivate me to keep going thanks for what you do. I'll come back even stronger
You definitely will man, hang in there!
Hows it going now
Brian should do a collab with John Meadows.
I would love to but I am fairly sure he has no idea who I am
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial don't say that my man..your channel is growing ..!
@layney boy layney boy..more like fuck boy
😭
One variation ive been doing is overhead pressing against the rack. So ill press the barbbell against the rack itself as I press up. Ive never experienced tricep pumps in an OHP like this with low reps (2-4). Also if any of you guys have a buffalo bar, thats a great way to add more ROM to your OHP and bench.
I like that, I just pay for my racks and bars, so I can't recommend doing that.
I know you said a previous video to stick to a program.... but it’s pretty damn hard when you keep coming out with these videos!
hahaha bout they are all for the same program!
The push press is a lot of fun.
What's your take on Landmine Pressing?
Awesome video Brian thank you, what are your thoughts on pausing in the rack position between reps while pressing vs a touch and go type cadence? I have been doing pauses because it makes the reps harder but honestly dont know if one is better than the other for strength development. I see you always doing touch and go, likely because you train for strongman. Just wondering if you have any wisdom for the different training effect of each. Thanks for all the effort you put into these videos.
Hi Brian, another great video as usual. Any value in isometrics for shoulders? I'm thinking of incorporating pin press and finishing with some isometrics at sticking points
Balls roo!!!
Hey Brian! Awesome video, definitely going to include the trap bar and pin presses into my upper body days. Also I am attending the seminar this Saturday and I was wondering do I need to bring anything such as a pen and paper??
ive seen chinese weightlifters using pins to lockout 500 and frontrack hold 880,also youve recommended using a yoke to deo waiters walks with supramaximal weights
Used to progress nicely using push press with strict press. The push press, however, murders my patella tendons because of the leg drive (the sharp change of direction)
Great video Brian! What about some keg workouts? I know you have a medly video and some throws but what if you want to do a full body workout with just a keg (or a couple with different weights)?
Nice vid man. I only do strict and push with bar but with dumbbells i do the single-arm dumbbell snatch and the single-arm push press. If one of my shoulders is falling behind in stregth i can tell right away and also can get it stronger.
Absolutely man, just make sure that it is actually a strength issue and not a coordination thing
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial God point. Thanks man. I do think it was strength because on one side i could go a few pounds heavier and on same weight same side usually went for more reps. Also that same stronger side my arm is half inch bigger than the other and it is the tricep that it is actually bigger. I think that one is just genetics.
I do Circus press and then do Handstand Press
Another great video Brian! I train in my basement and I don't have the vertical space for standing presses. Besides the Z Press what are your favorite seated or otherwise vertically lower overhead press variations?
How long did it take you to start overhead pressing after your shoulder surgery? I’m almost 4 months in recovery from my rotator cuff surgery. Thank you for all the info and videos you put out!! Appreciate it!
The Background on this Video is LIT Brain.
Thanks man, That is what is on the back of our shirts!
This is a very cool video with lots of new ideas. I have been using a SAND BAG recently as an overhead press variation. Any thoughts on that?
My grip is with a flat hand As you lift it up it shakes a little bit not much but you have to stabilize it. Anyway even with lighter weights compared to barbell it destroys my shoulders in a good way.
