Anyway, what I’m here to discuss today is the concept of NOT giving respect to certain lifts.The two biggest issues I see this in are the bench and the strict press (known as the Overhead press to many…despite being silly, considering there’s no such named lift and overhead press refers to any manner of pressing a weight overhead).Trainees get themselves so wrapped up on these two lifts, get in their own heads, spin their wheels forever, make zero progress, and come up with zero plans for success.Meanwhile, I’ve got Stretch Armstrong arms and a right shoulder that is effectively hamburger after a torn labrum, 6 shoulder dislocations and a dozen subluxations, and I’ve never encountered the struggle that trainees run into with these lifts, and I attribute this to the fact that I’ve NEVER considered them somehow special compared to any other lift.These lifts get no respect from me; why do they get it from you?
