i did 330x4 today, but didnt lock any of them out.
then did another 3 reps using my legs and locking out.
course my shoulders and chest were still sore from my chest workout, so i got more in me no doubt.

Just overhead or a proper press? I imagine there are a number of strong kids who have done push presses and jerks. Anyone doing a strict 300lb overhead press is impressive to me so a teen would be sick.
Anybody remember that video of the guy cheat curling 315 and then pressing it with the reverse grip? I think he is/was a teen or at least pretty young. That is a crazy crazy lift either way.

So are you telling me a push press is not a press that goes over head? We already have a name for that, its called a military press.
I call push presses push presses, I know strongman call overheads anything that goes overhead but I always thought military press = strict press = press overhead

anyone see the weight lifting in the olympics. that chinese 17 year old doing a 160kg clean and jerk and he weighs under 60kg himself.
i know it aint a strict overhead press but to get that sort of weight over your head is pretty impressive.
Yes its possible... I willl be deadlifting 235 by february 2009
No kidding?! That's awesome! What's your best time in running the mile? What about the 100m? 200m? Huh? What?

Sure, weight lifting is tough. It's even tougher when you battle the weights each and every workout trying to lift heavier or do more reps. But, you have to prove to your body that it needs more muscle to survive the next workout.

I always understood that a military press is differentiated from a Press by the foot position, military is heels together, press is shoulder width-ish.

it was probably John Connor. He's very impressive. Look for him to make a bigger splash in the circuit in a few years. He's already done well in a few big competitions.
edit: nevermind, above poster already answered.

plenty of oly lifters have done like 400+ clean and jerks as teens and they are not even heavyweights. Ilya Ilin won world championships at 17 in 85Kg class, sure he could easily have thrown 300lbs overhead like paper weight. Szymon Kołecki was a teen and threw up 500+ in clean and jerk at like 205lbs. When look at strong #'s oly lifters have everyone beat for doing it at a younge age.

Mil press = no leg drive/all shoulders
Push press = "bounce" with legs to help get weight up a bit and push the rest of the way
