    Solid overhead press routine...

    Anyone have one? I just tend to treat it like bench with doing it first then accessories afterwards.
    I push things over my head.

    I always rep back :), rep and you shall receive. 200+

    2 DB overhead strict pressing should be involved in whatever program you adopt. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9sZwQgFHuo

    I'd be interested in seeing a strict press/push press routine as well.

    There's plenty of decent bench programs a click away on Google but overhead pressing is something of a rarity.

    Weight 270 atm and have overhead pressed 260...not great for a strongman, I know. Have had a shoulder infringement for a long time without seeking treatment or rehabbing it until now.

    What I would really be interested in is seeing someone use the conjugate method with over head press. Never seen anyone do this, and I wonder about its practicality. DE day would be DE for strict military press, and ME day would feature press alternatives, such as push press, power jerks, inclines, DB MP, (assuming flexibility and no shoulder issues) snatch grip press behind the neck, press behind the neck, etc.). Partials could be done on ME day as well, except executed from a standing or seated position.

    I may give this a try myself one day.

    Note: I am not suggesting it, just wondering.

    I have seen a few guys do it. and write articles about it. Nothing special has come out of it from what I have read.

    Not as bad as that guy who O-lifts westside style.

    What kind of programming have you been running?

    Texas Method and its myriad permutations are very good for intermediate level programming... something like this, straight outta PP.

    Volume
    Puhs press 6x3

    Recovery
    Strict Press 2x5

    Intensity
    Push Press 1RM, 2RM, or 3RM

    You can also use speed work for overhead work just like you can with bench presses.
