Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Grip width affects emphasis — closer grip loads triceps more, wider loads chest more.
  2. 2. Exhale on the press, inhale on the way down.
  3. 3. Full range of motion: chest to the object on the way down, full lockout at the top.

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:

Wrist collapse under load — reinforce a stacked wrist and consider a neutral-grip variation.
