The Olympic Press or simply “the Press” is the fundamental exercise for developing Strength, Mass, and Power in the upper body, while requiring you to be able to stand on your own two feet, which is a requirement of athleticism. Just as everyone should know how much they can Bench Press, Squat, and Deadlift, you should also know your Press. In fact the Olympic Press historically proceeded the Bench Press, although the bench overtook it in popularity after the Press was eliminated from competition in 1972. The Press builds overall lifting dexterity and is the primary mass builder for the shoulders and triceps. - - - - #olympicpress #shoulders #delts #shoulderworkout #militartpress #standingpress #weightlifting #fitness #gym #muscle #workout #womensfitness #crossfit #fitnessmodel #barbell #gymmotivation https://www.instagram.com/p/CPDhxOjsWZh/?utm_medium=tumblr
