Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Drive the floor away on floor-based pressing — create full-body tension.
- 2. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
- 3. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
- 4. 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 weight, increase tempo on the eccentric, or progress to a single-arm variation for greater stability demand.
Common Problems:
Elbows flaring wide — keep at 45 degrees from the torso to protect the shoulder. Arching lower back — engage abs and glutes.
