Overhead Squats

(1/9) > >>

Donny:
So what sort of weight are you guys using on these?

chaos:
I can't remember exactly but around 225. I always used them as a warm up, not as any sort of mass or strength builder.

That's a good weight to use on such an exercise..

oldtimer1:
I don't use the snatch anymore but I used the Split snatch when I did. I would have no use for exercise.

Donny:
I´m just wondering about the load on the spine on the overhead press, then the spine must spread an equal load over the whole length, is there a difference to the back squat where most get lower back problems?
I want to equally spread the load & this is why i think the overhead squat might be a good exercise.
with a sensible weight of course ... ;)
