Military Press

Here is an upper body workout I did today focusing on the military press, following Jim Wendler's 5/3/1 template. I really suck at over-head pressing so the focus 5/3/1 puts on this lift is much needed. It is easy to avoid the drills you suck at, but usually those are the ones you need to work on the most.

Here is the workout I did today:
  • A1 Fat Bar Strict Military Press
    • 145 x 5,5,7
  • A2 Pull-Ups
    • 6 x 8
  • B1 Log Clean and Press (no leg drive)
    • 4 x 5
  • B2 TRX Row
    • 4 x 5
  • C1 Pull-Over Skull Crusher
    • 4 x 8-10
  • C2 Barbell Curl
    • 4 x 8-10

    Thanks for the demo, including info on where to rest the bar. I don't think I tend to avoid exercising my muscles that are a bit of a weak point. Though I do tend to avoid exercises where I find there is an awkwardness to the movement. Back in the olde days, I used to find behind the neck presses really awkward. Now, this exercise has "thankfully" been relegated to the 'Do Not Do' list, as a possible cause of injuries.
