13mm or bust
hmmm I'd get a Olympic weightlifting belt
not too much of a crutch and not flimsy either
I’m with Nick, 13mm or bust. My belt is awesome now that it’s really breaking in. No belts for Olympic lifts as I don’t compete weightlifting
But I do love the c&j
Love me some OHpress
And I always use a belt for those, especially if I'm going heavy
OHP is always such a humbling exercise for me. I expect it to be so much easier than it is because of my bench and it never is
my ohp is surprisingly not that shit
compared to my bench atleast
It's taken a lot of practice for me to make my ohp even comparable to my bench
I thought the two would translate to being similar but they're just not
For me, anyway
I can ohp bodyweight but I’m a manlet so
I want 225 ohp
200 would be good enough for me rn
I'm guessing ohp isn't one-handed press
Lol Barbell overhead press
O
I just call it military press.
Military press used to be with your heels together, hence the term
interesting
submax-beltless-kneesleeved-suicide gripped-standing-barbell overhead press in old ass Nike running shoes is the only way to ohp obviously
Suicide grip=no thumbs?
Yep
For some reason it's popular for bench press
I personally think it's retarded
It's a great way to get your throat crushed if you lose grip
Bulldog grip or nothing
I don’t use it on bench lol. Not trying to break a rib
On overhead press it’s the shit tho
I only use suicide grip on skull crushers
I also lift heavy and butter up my palms
Hook grip on everything even my steering wheel
I wish i knew how to fkn hookgrip
It’s not that hard. Check out Cailer Woolam
on my 480 pull two days ago I felt a pop in my bicep so I’m switching from mixed to hook. Today I hooked 405 for a double and no issues. I’ll link his vid
yeah I've watched a bunch of stuff about it but no luck, I'll give it another shot
i just don't feel strong with it, like it doesn't lock
