Enjoy training your muscle in the opposite direction than what you want. Better stay to 5 reps. Up the weight and if you fail at 3 just push press the last two with a slow negative.
If you aren't hitting your 5 reps on a planned progression scheme, you've accumulated too much fatigue. Ramming your head against the wall and going past failure won't help you.
This usually isn't the problem with OHP, it's very hard to overtrain that lift. Though the fatigue from other pressing exercises, like benching, could cause problems for OHP.

Muscle fibres are pushed to the end you train them. It's why the body building meme about cardio kills gains was actually correct. You do a set of heavy squats at 5 reps and then do 20 rep sets on leg extensions is illogical. It's why most guys are weak as frick and progress incredibly slowly. Negatives make sense since you've only gone to failure concentrically. You also need 48 hours to repair the muscle meaning all these 6 day a week routines are actually killing hypertrophic gains
Do it often, 2-3x/week. No "light" days. Start 3x5 PR every workout SSLP style, when that stops working make one day 5x3, one 5x5, maybe 3x8 too, etc. All max effort within those rep ranges.
For ohp, I have more luck with increased frequency, so 2-3 time a week, once hard and heavy the other times light and high reps or a variation like btn, push press, seated, db etc. And much more volume. 5*5 at least, I've done up to 10*5 with good results. But I only press 200lbs so idk
>You could not make it any more obvious that you have never pressed anything heavy over your intact skull if you tried
Look guys I found a moronic homosexual.
The difference is that when I press it doesnt involve wheel chairs or drinking from straws.
Holy shit you really are a moronic homosexual arnt you?! Lmao
If you need someone to explain to you that contorting your spine and then applying weight to it is bad, then Id rather not.
Gotcha, I’m sure no one has ever deadlifted 900 pounds with a rounded thoracic spine. I’m sure if that actually happened you would make sure to tell them that they’re doing it wrong.

Do you want any links to videos or studies or are you cool with being wrong (and a moronic gay)
he outlifts you in EVERY POSSIBLE LIFT, and he is healthier than you. transparent cope. >if i used that technique, i could press 4pl8 too!
no you couldn't you fat dyel frick.
>Frick bros…dudes a monster
he isn't
660/405/730(straps) while using insulin.
that's not particularly strong. his one movement is the chrated press that nobody does anymore. look at the old weightlifting numbers where they had to clean it first too and couldn't use a bouncing floating rack start
The reason your ohp stalls is because you should be doing dumbbell version to fix imbalance and be able to do them supported so your core won't drag you down
You should be doing press in the dumbbell form too, barbells are for rows,squats,hipthrusts and deadlifts everything else is either a même excercize or inferior to their dumbbell version
Instead of getting micropl8s get some chains of different size and weight them, tie the ends together, there you got your micropl8s.
Micropl8s are stupidly expensive, a couple chains will be a couple bucks at most, you can ask the clerk at the hardware store to weight and cut them if you don't have the tools.
push press is far superior to strict press because all strict presses end up becoming bastardized standing bench press once people attempt to maximize their form
fricking powerlifters optimize the sovl out of everything they do, gigantic homosexuals
Pump some blood into shoulders with pushpresses, especially BtN. Pack on some shoulder mass. Strict OHP will go up too. Faster progress than adding tinyweighs to your tiny strict OHP.
Not really necessary. You can just spend twice as much time on the lower weight or do more reps before you progress, then jump up with the 2.5 kg/5 pound plates instead.
Personally my OHP exploded when I changed my routine and started focusing on extra hypertrophy sets after my main heavy sets. I do an extra 5 sets of 10 at 40-60% 1RM. They are surprisingly difficult to do despite the low weight, harder even than the main weight. OHP 1RM went from 60 to 82.5 kg in about a year.
I would highly recommend you not lift OHP like a bench press like your pic unless you want to frick up your spine.
This is pretty good advice. I just do a pyramid. Doing more reps on the way back down/to fail. 5x-8x Bar, 25's, 45's, 55-65's at like 3 real reps couple sets, back down 8-12x. Just keep strict form and do what feels right.
no just increase reps before increasing weight
>Powershitters
No even once

Do you even?
You're right and anons wrong. The Rippechodes are a much worse breed

>t. Dyel with 2 months lifting experience
followed your advice, now doing the bar for 3 sets of 85. when do I increase the weight?
now add the clips
Yes
Cringe
not arched enough
Fractionals are used years later. The only reason a novice would need to use these is because he's got an eating disorder.
No need to as a beginner
You can go
>5x5
>5x4 +2.5 kg
>5x3 +5 kg
>5x5 +2.5 kg
What does it say on the wall
Womens are not mentally normal. Also absence of physical effort
Interesting, thank you
> standing bench press
>not doing strict military presses
Why even bother
We've got a super cool dude right here
is this dude wearing an equipped diaper even? truly a strict press
I ran an OHP block with microplates once, got great results. I got some 2" washers, 4 in total, since 2 of them are about 1.25 lbs.
Chase is strong as frick.
Yes use micros.
Humans are not normal in the absence of hard work.
Is there webm of this lift to see if he survived?
There's vids on his insta including him doing 4 plate in a comp
Interdasting. He looks dyel and his shids all fugged up
>DYEL
He's massive lol
He looks chubby
>Chase looks dyel
jesus christ dude you're delusional
If he posted on fit he would unironically get called a fat dyel
He is a fat dyel. Powersharting is the final cope for fat dyels.
He is not a powerlifter
What is he then?
*crickets*
a rippechode
>be fat
>don't go outside
>look like shit
How could this be possible?
How do I get better at ohp? My current ohp is 4x4 32.5kg. 1rm I actually don't know.
I'm doing 5x5 at 1 pl8, It was a b***h to get here tho. Sometimes I couldn't lift my arms the next day
>do more OHP
>throw in seated DB OHP or lateral raises
>eat more
t. hit 170 lb OHP this morning
>lateral raises
Lu raises

>throw in seated DB OHP or lateral raises

t. 180(lbs)x5 OHP
Not at first, it takes a few months first
I'm doing 3x5. How do I know whether to deload when I fail or switch to something like 5x3 (and then go back to 3x5 when that fails)?
For ohp, I have more luck with increased frequency, so 2-3 time a week, once hard and heavy the other times light and high reps or a variation like btn, push press, seated, db etc. And much more volume. 5*5 at least, I've done up to 10*5 with good results. But I only press 200lbs so idk
Why do powershiters all cope press like this? This guy aint long for this world. Be sure to post the webm where his spine ejects a disc into orbit.
They don't
You could not make it any more obvious that you have never pressed anything heavy over your moronic skull if you tried
>You could not make it any more obvious that you have never pressed anything heavy over your intact skull if you tried

How about you go ahead and tell me anatomically why a lay back in the press is bad you smooth brain wiener sucking moron
Holy shit you really are a moronic homosexual arnt you?! Lmao

The spine is in a normal position. The weight is not applying a moment to the spine because the erectora support it.
You have nevet done a layback press, so you don't know. I have done it many times and I have zero issues.
This guy did it with 500lbs and his back was also just fine:
So dyel, pls stop posting moron rantings. Ok thxs.
>this spine is in a normal position according to rippetards
he outlifts you in EVERY POSSIBLE LIFT, and he is healthier than you. transparent cope.
>if i used that technique, i could press 4pl8 too!
no you couldn't you fat dyel frick.
Not likely to slip a disc during spinal extension. Flexion would be bad.
redpill be on standing bench
>heh my 95lb OHP is clearly superior as I did not lean as much
Which is more impressive IST, Klokov's strict 162 or Chase's layback 184?
why has klokov become a crossfit moron
money. crossfit people will pay $200 a month for their shitty box gym memberships. i can't hate him for cashing in on that craze
Easily klokov's, especially since he push pressed 225 which is a more impressive lift than either of those
> cope
The lift
>I will never be as strong as Chase
Frick bros…dudes a monster

660/405/730(straps) while using insulin.
that's not particularly strong. his one movement is the chrated press that nobody does anymore. look at the old weightlifting numbers where they had to clean it first too and couldn't use a bouncing floating rack start
That’s better stats than 99% of IST
IST doesn't lift.
>660/405/730(straps)
>not particularly strong
And what are your stats?
>t. dyel
Always some moron trannie trying to diminish others
>while using insulin
evidence?
>660/405/730
also a 405lb bench press is very strong especially since it wasn't RPE10
>Why'd ya do it stayvun??
I am doing 4x8 for OHP, should I add more weight and do less reps? Or is it fine as it is?
3x5 to build strength

most weightplates at commercial gyms aren't calibrated accurately enough to justify microplates
Absolute dogshit form

Yes. Do not listen to advice in this thread and just follow the program.
i like ppl, it has barbell ohp, dumbbell incline shoulder press and smith machine overhead press. 5x5 and 3x10 on different days
I can't break 3x7 @ 55kg
Am I doing too many reps?
Should I stop doing pull-ups beforehand?
I stand up straight, OP looks like his form is shit
push press is far superior to strict press because all strict presses end up becoming bastardized standing bench press once people attempt to maximize their form

They're not powerlifters.
Pump some blood into shoulders with pushpresses, especially BtN. Pack on some shoulder mass. Strict OHP will go up too. Faster progress than adding tinyweighs to your tiny strict OHP.
this is just like a standing incline bench. shouldn't he be more vertical?
also that's a flimsy looking power rack
those racks are good, they're made out of c channel and you could park a car on top of them
>Beginner
Not a beginner here, use microplates. I make jumps of 2.5kg total every week when I go up.
