Ruhl released a video yesterday called "Stupid exercises noone needs", and "Arnold Press" and standing "Military press" are on top of that list.




Maybe Ruhl knows a thing or two about building shoulders

No problem Darren. I'll mark it off on the calendar to remind you to post up the video come next week.

We had a guy here named The Trainer that used to make crazy claims and promised a video/pictures, yet never delivered. We know you're a good guy, so we don't want anyone to think similar.

I'll remind you come next Wednesday and will add it to the site's calendar (it will send me a message on Wednesday to remind you).

I can't wait!

If you can really standing military press your bw for 20 reps you are one of the P4P strongest peoplein the world. Most cant do one proper rep.

Hell no. American athletes are weak for the most part, including our olympic  lifters.  For a shot putter to be considered above average   in the soviet union he needs to be able to close grip bench 450.

Tren makes you strong, which would explain the crazy 60kg military press.

I wouldn't anyway.  Its a horrible, dangerous exercise.  Very compressive to the lumbar vertebrae.  No reason the screw up my back.  Oly lifting sucks nuts anyway.

Darren is under 5ft tall, which explains his light BW.

A stumpy guy on gear ought to be pressing more than 60kg though.

Just recently managed 80kg (at 94-94kg bw) for an easy clean rep... then subsequently failed to get 82,5kg above eyelevel...
One of the hardest movements in my opinion.. even small increases can absolutely shut you down.

I did militaries today and worked up to a clean 70kg (155#) x 10. There was a time that I could probably do 80kg (175#) x 6-8, but my shoulder has been a slight mess for about 9 months now. BW = 97kg. I know that doesn't sound like much, but I have to push the fucking bar about a meter over my head. FML.

I don't know what the deal is really, I can pretty comfortable rep 70-75kg, but once I get to 80 or above it just stops. Just can't get it up high enough passed the eyes from the shoulders to continue pushing it out. And I don't have to deal with long limbs or anything at 1.78m. (By comparison, I pushpress up to 110kg and jerk 140kg).

Why bother if it's such a risk?
Work your back/lower back when doing back or lower back, lol... I don't see the purpose of doing a mass exercise and limiting the weight that it's no longer an effective mass movement. But you sure work everything else!
