Just to the crease of the head or just below 90 degrees. You can go ahead and go below shoulders. That is fine with lighter weight. I'd personally try to avoid it.

Why does Palumbo always say, without FAIL, "It looks like you're doing a little [X bodypart] training"?  Isn't that obvious from the footage?  And why is it always a "little" whatever? :D

But to this guy's credit, I fully agree:  on behind-neck press, ear-level is PLENTY low enough.  Front press?  Chin or even Adam's Apple is probably better, even if it involves "more of the upper chest" as Liberatore said.

So you are telling me you want to put a 300+ lbs load with your humerus at a negative 45 degree angle with the only thing holding it in place is a strip of tendon? Go for it man. Remember you used momentum to get it past the bottom half. It's not safe. You can only get away with it for so long.


Honestly I cannot comment as I do not do these but i will start but just a few thoughts:

If that was the case would you just not use lower weight but fuller ROM

Also if you are seated I do not think you could use momentum?

Like I said I have not tried these but i will and get back to you man!
