Bench Press...
I'm Jk.
The Z-press is my favourite 'press' variation.
Followed by a seated pin press.FMH crew - Couch.

The humble press up.
Unless we are talking about vertical presses, then I’d have to say seated DB or standing behind the neck BB with suicide grip.Age: 30

The muscle snatch (also known as the continous clean and press) that turns into a muscle clean and push press when the weight gets heavy enough to require a dip to press. It's a ****ing fabulous exercise.

What’s the difference between those 3? Never heard of “Press 2.0” and as far as I’m aware, the “Olympic press” is basically a standing incline bench.

Is press 2.0 a push press, football bar press, or that Rippetoe momentum maneuver press?
Edit: MyEgoProblem answered it at the same time I guessed lol.

Not a fan of 2.0 either! Just push it or lean back like a pro.Originally Posted by Ironface
I'll offer a potential little Caveat here for the squat deal. To ponder over.
What 'starting strength people' do who learn by watching videos and reading the book is different to what their certified coaches teach in person one2one.
Sure they exaggerate the ass drive cue in videos, and at seminars.. But seminars are a pita with so many people who can't do **** who are on their toes.
Won't deny I've had to un **** a few self taught

It's a tough choice between strict OHP and the variant choice imo because I dig strict pressing superset with pullups since they compliment each other greatly in that combination, but I also appreciate OHPs done with my football bar from time to time (also a nice superset with pullups) and seated DB shoulder press with palms facing the ears and rotating the wrists pronated hits all the shoulder heads as well as the traps nicely too!

Why aren't flat bench, incline bench, and OHP on here?

I gather that people don't take to the press 2.0 . I tried it and wasn't able to lift as much as on the strict press. I also don't like the way it feels. I'm not quite sure why it exists.

I'm a firm believer in the standing kettlebell press (either single or double), definitely feels the most natural. That being said, a traditional standing OHP or push press was my go to.
