Why can't I move past the 25 kg on the overhead press when I'm eating and sleeping enough?

Do you count the bar wtf?

I started several months ago and have been pressing at least twice a week but I can't get past 20+2x2,5 kg without breaking form.

try adding volume. Also work in single heavy sets too, like PRs.

Sounds like you need to mobilize your thoracic spine+shoulders. If you can't lift your arms straight overhead such that your ears show from the side without extending your back, then ohp will prolly cause back pain for you. Watch out for your ribs rising while lifting overhead, means you're extending your back to try to get the weight overhead. If you're shoulders are rounded instead of down and back, then that could also be a factor

You're supposed to bend backwards a little bit, otherwise you're going to hit yourself in the face with the bar.

You're actually a girl, time to transition

I can't press past 1kg. I'm not counting my 80kg barbell though

I know that. I mean my back is bending backwards too much.

This OP is a literal fucking brainlet. Probably hit himself in skull too many times trying to OHP

Is this b8? The bar counts...

I can't press past 2 planets. I'm not counting the barbell with the density of a neutron star.

2 months lifting

My current progress on OHP is
30kg (3 x 8 reps)

Is this ok or am I lagging behind average? I'm 6ft like 72kg

4 months liftin 5'10 dyel. Currently lift 1pl8 x 4

Do intensity

Also, make sure you screw your feet into the ground to activate glutes. Also tense your abs after you screw your feet in

also 72kg

Kg? Whats that 2x 20kg + 20kg bar = 60kg ?

How much is too much? Look at this video (14:21)

Or this one (4:50 and again at 6:20)
You're supposed to bend backwards as you're pressing

Bullshit.
Symetric strength says 99kg x4 reps is World Class. You claim 4 months at dyel size, you're BSing

Whoops forgot to link the second one

OP I don't know if you mean 25 kg pl8 or 25 kg in total. If you mean 70 kg/155 lbs total than just add some accessories like dips and or viking press, and make sure your doing a vertical pull like pull downs or pull up's and adding band pull aparts/face pulls will help as well.

>t. a guy w/ a 260 lb MP

you got any problems with your shoulders?
even before going to the gym and training on the
regular i was lifting 30 kg for 10 reps with my barbell at home..

99 kg is not 1 pl8 you newb. 1 pl8 is 20 kg/45 lbs which equates to 61 kg/135 lbs on a bar. 99 kg/217 lbs is not 1 pl8. Want to know how I know you don't even lift?

>several months ago
>25kg press

Can I still improve on OHP while on an aggressive fasting routine? Late beginner/early intermediate at 25% BF btw.

What your routine look like

Probably not. Your body needs fuel and OHP is taxing on your body. I'm not saying it can't be done but progressing on OHP and bench while fasting or cutting is insanely difficult compared to squatting and dealifting while fasting or cutting. I'm not saying it can't be done because everyone is different but it will definitely be difficult.

I can feel being weaker at the gym in general, pretty sure it's impossible (at least for me).
