Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Foot position and leg drive reinforce stability even in upper-body movements.
- 2. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
- 3. Drive the floor away on floor-based pressing — create full-body tension.
Regression:
Use a machine or cable variation to learn the pressing path before loading a free-weight version.
Progression:
Add a dynamic component — clap push-up or plyo push-up — once the strength base is established.
Common Problems:
Wrist collapse under load — reinforce a stacked wrist and consider a neutral-grip variation.
