Before you do the overhead press you want to make sure you have the shoulder mobility to perform the overhead press correctly. You want to make sure that you can hold your arm by your ear. If you cant, make sure to check out this video:    • THIS Is Hurting Your Overhead Shoulde...  

The first thing we want to look at when we do the overhead press is our feet. We want to set them and make sure they are stable. Find where you like to squat, around hip width, and make sure you really drive your feet into the ground.

When you grab the bar, try and go slightly outside shoulder width. This allows you to stay comfortable but also to get an extended range of motion. Try and think having a vertical straight line between your elbow and your wrist.

Have the bar rest on your collarbone. Grab the bar and press upwards. When you press your head comes forward, this is normal. It’s to help your shoulders go backward.

We recommend doing the overhead press earlier in your workout. It is considered a compound movement and requires a lot of energy to do it the right way. You can play around with the rep ranges when you do this exercise as well.

What we recommend is training all three heads of the shoulder. This includes the front, middle, and rear parts of the delt. This can be done through a variety of exercises. Some of our favorites are overhead presses, lateral raises, and rear delt flyes.
