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!

Can you UK twats PLEASE fuck off with this "stone" bullshit? Kilos or pounds, not some Mesozoic unit of measure based on the weight of a "largish trilobite"

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.
