Brah, don't let your spine and thighs change their angle relative to each other, if you must lean back, do so at the knees. Keep glutes and abs engaged throughout.
weird i can unironically 2pl8 standing strict OHP so i thought my core and posterior chain would be pretty good. but i am terrible with hip hinge movements which i neglected forever (but fixing now) and get wrecked
No, gaylord form homos got rid of it. They could have easily made it just to get the bar over head with no dipping or jerking. But the olympic committee cupcakes couldn't stop eating avacado toast and quiche long enough to come up with a simple judging for it. Now the biggest strength move the olympics had is gone because of a bunch of pissy frenchmen with painted fingernails.
You probably can't brace for shit and didn't squeeze your glutes, but in reality this shit doesn't matter.
People can lift with dogshit form in certain lifts because they have favorable leverages and they won't get hurt. Others can have perfect form and still get hurt.
My advice is to stop doing lifts that hurt you, focus on what you can do without pain and become stronger.
I can't squat without getting hip and back pain and I have accepted this, so I just focus on my deadlift instead.
Bro do not frick with back pain. I hurt my lower back deadlifting and it took months to recover and it was debilitating. Try and change your form but if it keeps bothering your back DON'T DO IT
I did the same mistake. Honestly OP just go and do dumbbell OHP, same thing but lighter and it'll never get heavy enough to snap shit. Remember to brace and all that other stuff you already know.

You need fricking potassium loser. Eat swiss chard/beet leaves or steak.
Taters have some banging potassioum
Love taters me. Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew.
Explain please
Thoughts on my home gym?
Seems like a nightmare to rack heavy weights with that rinky dinky rack
why is evrything sideways

OHP doesn't really involve posterior chain if you get good at balancing
There's a reason they got rid of the OHP from civilized competitions.
Theres not an overhead press, thats standing bench press. Overhead press the bar goes over the head.
>standing
>bench
...
And yes, that's exactly how they'd perform OHP back in the day, they'd use their chest to aid pushing the weight overhead

They got rid of it because its easy to cheat the form, not because its bad or dangerous
dumbbell shoulder press will give you that vertical push without the bizzare logistics
You shouldn't feel your lower back at all.

OHP is a moronic exercise for your front delts.
Do dips instead
