Trained arms
Db curls
Rev curls with ez bar
Tricep pushdown
Different kind of pushdown where I lean in and push straight down like a close grip press
Did 3 cycles of these exercises non stop for 12 sets
Pulled a 160 lbs sled 50 yards down and back 3 times
I have a 30 lbs medicine ball or apparently we are calling it a slam ball now
Soul Crusher or really anyone that can help do you have some good exercises to do with this thing

Single arm DB press is great & i bet a strict one you would not press that weight. Not against full body exercises but it´s not like a true strict press is it. If doing strictly delts i see no need for it. just more of a cross-fit thing. Maybe that is your goal i don´t know.

I've never tried a standing 1 arm DB Press

This guy does them with really good form
He also does very low volume. I think the only thing he did for delts at that time was 3 sets of standing DB press
&t=576s

If you don't grab the rack like he does it would make it even more challenging on the core.

I've seen people on twitter shoot for 50% bodyweight single arm push press.  Seems to be the goal.

SC doing 10 reps of 90 lb snatches is insane though.  Those really torch the shoulders and upper back.

Simple but fng effective.   Grab a heavy ass DB off the floor and press it overhead.

He's trying to train his delts not his core

WAAAAY back in the day,they said this excercise would make your obliques bigger therefore creating a wider waist and detracting from the desired V-shape.....I`m talking very old Weider and Hoffman publications.

Of course I have done them and my waist stayed small.......lots of myths dispelled over time .....they did a lot wrong back then but they were the pioneers,so props to them.

He's holding on with his offhand because he doesn't have the stability to press the weight.

Sounds like he needs to work his core. ;D

But he is.

Watch him wobbling around while doing those presses.

He is absolutely working his core.

He is stabilizing himself partially with his offhand because he's not strong enough to press the DB without it.

This isn't some secret lift.

If you actually watched the video you'd see him address everything you claim
You'd also see him do standing bb press with 225 with no leg drive or back bend
The dude is precise in every rep of every movement

BTW - who said it was a secret lift.

You're arguing with the political board shizzo, he doesn't even lift, he's just here to promote liberal points of view.

The single DB heavy clean and press is an awesome exercise for boulder shoulders.   Worked up to the 100's today.
Nice. Are you doing singles per arm or reps with 100's?

Single arm for reps alternating left and right each rep.    It’s probably my favorite exercise as of late.

are you pulling it off the floor on each rep?

I'm assuming you must be if you're switching hands on each rep

Fair enough.

I did watch the video.

He's about as precise as you can get with a standing press.

Yup.  Another staple exercise.   It’s way better than barbell snatches imho.
