Z-press

nigga whats not to understand

aaare you retarded? he can't sit with a vertical torso while maintaining straight legs on the ground

I need to see this

100% useless meme shit peddled by retards who probably saw someone else who actually knows what they're doing and thinks they'll magically because a super athlete like them.

Useless press

It's probably more the mobility in his shoulders than anything else. I had the same problem... Anything light I could keep above me because I was able to pull it backwards, but as soon as it got heavier I would always end up dropping it forward.

Btw: The sots-press is more something for Olympic weightlifting to practice balance in the catch position of the snatch. The Z-press is pretty based for training the OHP because it really forces you to do almost everything with your shoulders while stabilising your core.

Z-press alongside with facepulls and dips + mobility work got my OHP from 95kgs to 115kgs in about 3 months.

Training OHP twice a week, once heavy for triples and once for reps (4-6).

On the heavy days I did OHP, facepulls, dips and pull-ups. On the rep-day I did OHP, facepulls, Z-press and pull-ups.

What's the diference between this and the seated press?

Jow Forums either hangs from alpha faggots nuts or hes posting her shilling his video

Seated press = shoulders, but the way most people slide down as they get heavier it's more upper chest and front delts.

Sots-press: shoulders, mobility and stability for the catch-position of the snatch.

Z-press: pure shoulders and stability. Leaning either way to forward or to backwards and you'll miss the lift.

I don't Z press but 2 tips:
Unrack off pins. You will be a tad bit stronger not having to move with the bar.
Unrack it with the bar slightly off the clavicle, then allow your hands to drop to get a tiny bit of a "bounce" at the bottom. Alan Thrall recommends this

blaha please go

neat will try this
I was having my elbows a bit more in front of the shoulders and then doing a glute squeeze/thrust right before pushing up, kinda helped too

at that point it's a push press. I forgot the details but alan thrall says it was legal in some competitions to unrack it slightly higher than normal for this purpose

not a push press my legs and knees stay straight it just happens I squeeze my glutes agressively at the same time I push so I basically "xplode", took it from here:
