Funny thing is I'm the only one in my gym doing these stuff. I pity most of the people in my gym because they have no idea about what they are missing on. A little tip, try squeezing your glutes for the overhead press. But I guess you already knew that coach :D Go Hard.

Well, the plain truth is that strength is nothing that someone has to believe in. I mean is a physical fact: strength; it exist, period. Is a fact, why should anybody believe in a fact?....But...I UNDERSTAND YOUR POINT! I don't know why, but while everybody seems to think that being fast is good; having endurance is good; being flexible is good and no questions about it. Strength seems to be a completely different thing in the people's mind. I'm envolved in the martial arts world and I couldn't tell how many times I've heard "I don't want to do legs strength training because it makes you slow", "I'm afraid that if I lift weights I'll lose mobility" and other things alike. WHY?!! I think I finally got a hint of the answer: pussy gyms. I mean if you sit down in an machine, isolate muscles, work in a very narrow range of motion, and do little or none stretching at all you will finally walk like Frankestein and lift like a little girl. So, once again I'm with you. Grab a boulder of rock and lift it all the way from the floor to the top of your head, like vikings did to compete in strength and you will get real strength!

Overhead is the way to go. The arm chair gurus well they are going to have to deal with it, overhead works. Besides sitting is bad for you but that doesn't stop them from sitting around and criticizing the few who practice what they preach. One more thing Matty is a Freak! Keep Rockn it Blaine Zach,

If you want to get strong you gotta work. Arguing what an exercise is called is a waste of energy. On my studio wall I have a simple line hand written, "NO CRY BABIES ALLOWED." My six year old daughter re-wrote it, on the wall, just so people were clear! Thanks for all the information you supply Z. :) I believe I have no time for whiners!!
