Standing Press alternative

[Kentisc]

So I'm dealing with an issue here. I train in my garage with some basic equipment.
The problem is that the ceiling is too low for me to stand up and perform a standing press and lock it out properly.
So what's the best alternative here? Except from getting a new garage.
I'm running Madcow 5x5 by the way.

Any input is appreciated, thanks.

Get some cheap squat stands and press outside. If a persian army attacks you with a force of 10k archers you can press in the shade.

Why not try a seated press?

Adding to/changing InspecktaDeck's idea, just clean the weight into place and press outside

Another idea is Klokov presses, the shortened ROM might clear the ceiling. No clue what running them long-term is gonna do for ya though

Or just do seated press

Edit: Savickas presses is another idea, if you have a rack

Thanks for the input guys.
I'll have to try some of these and see which one will give me the most benefits in the long term.

Seated presses as mentioned above. One thing I do in my basement is to load the bar with smaller plates. Say 25s at the biggest.

You could load the bar with 25's and 10's

If you don't do strongman I don't see how doing seated shoulder press affect your progress negatively. Well it's a cool lift but if you don't have room we can't make your ceiling taller from the internet

I have the same issue. Bradford Presses are awesome. So are seated pin (concentric only) presses.

Crouching Press, Hidden Squat

I know it's a somewhat different lift, but I've seen a lot of people recommend incline press instead of OHP. Seated seems like the simplest solution though.

It might not be for everyone, but you can always go outside
