Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.
- 2. Keep the ribcage down and neutral spine — avoid arching lower back to assist.
- 3. Grip width affects emphasis — closer grip loads triceps more, wider loads chest more.
- 4. Set the shoulder blades before pressing — retract and depress, then press.
Regression:
Perform a wall push against a vertical surface to learn shoulder packing with zero load.
Progression:
Add weight, increase tempo on the eccentric, or progress to a single-arm variation for greater stability demand.
Common Problems:
Losing shoulder blade position mid-set — re-cue retract and depress before the next rep.
