🛑3 Overhead Press Form Mistakes

Do you want to get more out of your shoulder press? Here are 3 quick form tips.
First, check your grip width. It’s common for people to maintain a very wide grip on the Overhead Press. But you are at your strongest when your wrists are positioned directly above your elbows.
Secondly, avoid a curved back while performing the Overhead Press. Squeeze your glutes to keep the hips in a neutral position and press from a more stable foundation.
Lastly, avoid pressing the barbell forward and then up. This results in an inefficient bar path and you won’t be able to press much weight. Instead, focus on maintaining a mostly vertical bar path.

Thank you!

Is it possible to have a perfectly vertical bar-path by moving the head out of the way? Or will there always be a little forward bar movement?

@@algirdasltu1389 As I understand it, a military press is simply a strict shoulder press with the feet together.
