When performing The Press™, do you use the hips like rippetoe says, or perform it strict without any movement?

Those were the days. When men of strength lifted twice their bodyweight.

If you want to hit your arms more, do a push press (with hips or knees), and use the stretch reflex (don't rest at bottom).

If you want to hit the shoulders more, do it strict and reset every rep at the bottom.

Looks like a stand up bench

Always standing. Always strict form. No bouncing the bb or using momentum to throw it up. I move my head just back far enough to let the bb pass then I move my head back into position (forward).

Some anon mentioned to use microplates and add small amounts of weight. It's working for me. Not even 1pl though.

It seems I must elaborate:

Those were the days. When men of strength lifted twice their bodyweight overhead, without the use of leg momentum.

This. Push press is GOAT for a shoulder and arm pump. Also, they helped me break through my month long plateau at 115 for 3x5

BB push press for heavy ass weights
One hand db ohp for moderate weight and creating a stretch.
