Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
- 2. End range is where the real work happens — do not shy away from it.
- 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:
Uneven lockout — identify the weaker side and address with unilateral assistance work.
