Key Teaching Points:

- 2. Exhale on the press, inhale on the way down.
- 3. Grip width affects emphasis — closer grip loads triceps more, wider loads chest more.
Regression:
Use a machine or cable variation to learn the pressing path before loading a free-weight version.
Progression:
Add a loaded vest or belt to increase total resistance without changing the movement pattern.
Common Problems:
Uneven lockout — identify the weaker side and address with unilateral assistance work.
