lol! dude.. this is like way past me man.. and in the article he is talking about pressing the weight from the front.. very often, most ppl will perform this lift with the wrong form and with weight more than they can handle..

the OHP is a VERY humbling lift.. and i perform the OHP behind the neck instead of in front.. and yes! overhead squats DO help!! but are for very advanced lifters.. so for those of u who want to try overhead squats.. make sure u know what u are doing and do your research!!

would u mind posting those articles? as i have doubts regarding those articles..

although i have only been in this game for a year, but what i have seen so far(overseas) convinces me that BTN pressing is the best way to correct your posture and form..

as all olympic lifters train their presses behind the neck.. and their lockouts are behind the neck too.. i.e. jerk, snatch etc etc..

thx T+1.. it's true that not everyone can do it.. thus.. i think recommendations to do pressing from the front would be better..
