The super site is suggesting a program that includes the push press for people for people beginning to weight train. Surely this isn't a good idea? I was hoping I could get some advice on any alternative or good replacement exercises for the push press for those of us only beginning to weight train.

lol.
seriously... start light, go heavier until you get to a weight that your back starts arching to the point of slight discomfort (versus injury) then go back down a little and do the work there."I'm Mr. Beast, the big bad Fenris wolf, I'm The-End-of-the-World-Man, wearing the flesh of fallen angels!" - Jack Lupino

No point in not learning how to do an exercise. You'll be fine.
I only seem like I know what I'm talking about, because I only talk about things that I know about.
