    I always thought it was funny that people call it a “push jerk”….cause how are you going to jerk without a push? haha. I prefer to call it a “power jerk.” Nice video man, keep up the good work

    @yaklord
    ah, well those are stupid muscle-isolating exercises i try not to think about since they are such a waste of time for virtually everyone.

    though the word “shoulder” is redundant- how can you press anything without your shoulders?

    @yaklord
    what the hell are you talking about?

  8. yaklord on May 23rd, 2010 11:48 pm

    @kettlebellconvert
    leg press, tricep press, calf press, neck press, finger press, toe press…

    anyone else think is hands are out kind of wide? maybe his body just works that way?

    @eamonob84
    “military” press is a retarded version of the press where you stand straight and tall and dont move anything except your arms, thus pushing the bar NOT directly overhead- a stupid and inefficient way to lift it. add the word “seated” to something to make it seated, usually.

    This is simply the press, or overhead press, or shoulder press- though the word “shoulder” is redundant- how can you press anything without your shoulders?

    you press it OFF your shoulders i guess…

    No.

  12. eamonob84 on May 24th, 2010 1:49 am

    isnt military press when you’re sitting down, though?

    my good man i am appalled that you would think i use foul language to get my message across. i my good man am a gentleman and have never used such dispicable words in my life. what i said in spanish was i concur with the statement sir. i believe an apology is in order sir!

    yes. That’s the “Law of Specificity”. If your aim is to improve punching power through myofibrillar hypertrophy ( which is much more permanent than vascular or “pump”), it would be faster to do exercises “explosively” with weight along with extra emphasis on form(light weight and low reps to prevent fatigue) and low rep/ max or close max weight.
    To stay in your weight class, it would be better to practice your punch via neural efficiency. It’s better to improve your power to weight ratio.

    A military press must have the lifter make his heels touch.

    A shoulder press has the lifter stand with feet shoulder-width apart.

  23. TruthAxe on May 24th, 2010 7:19 am

    If you want to get better at punching you must punch more and learn to throw a punch better by analyzing and improving punching mechanics.

    If you want to become stronger, you must work your muscles through resistance and eat more protein to grow muscle through microfibrillar hypertrophy.

    Punching relies on isolateral glute, oblique, erector, lat, and rear deltoid with forearm torque.

  24. TruthAxe on May 24th, 2010 8:17 am

    In the Push Press, the lifter relies on upward lift through the glutes, hams and erector spinae while doing a shoulder press.

    In the Push Jerk, the lifter drops into a half squat, presses the weight, locks his elbows for stiff arms and then relies on his glutes, hams and erector spinae.

    Far better exercises exist for the athlete.

    Use dumbbells or sandbags for the press.

    Skip the push press and push jerk. Leave those for Olympic lifters who compete in a highly-specialized sport.

    How nerdy is that? You write in Spanish, presumably “piece of shit” and then you write in English.

    Make up your mind.

Got something to say?
