Your shoulders are stronger than my legs
Wookii_cooki damn I never thought about that hahaha you made me laugh man thanks
His shoulders are stronger than my whole body (deadlift)!
Hahah thanks fellas!
steven king same lol my one rep max is 365 😂 unreal and amazing strength
I've just been at it a long time fellas, you will surpass me in the future, no doubt in my mind!
if I die because a barbell fell on me, add more weights, then call an ambulance!!
Hahah this made me laugh!
Started laughing like an hour ago and am still going! :-D
This is bro law. Anytime a bro may become injured or otherwise incapacitated add weight more weights to the bar before calling emergency services.
I'll also tell them you got to 3 reps with it before it came crashing down
Your strength and your strength knowledge are are very impressive. It is not difficult to understand why you have been so successful in your Strongman competitions. Thank you for taking the time to share your extensive training knowledge with those of us who enjoy training. Also a 'tip of the hat' to Alan Thrall for giving us a pointer to your TH-cam channel.
Yea man, Alan helped me out so much and has never asked for one thing in return. That guy is a tier one human being. Seriously.
Hey Brian. I'm following your 3-month linear progression program and adding to it all kind of assistance exercices you preach. The results are awesome 3 weeks is visually and on the bar. OHP was my weakest exercise and it started looking decent with all your tips. Thanks for your valuable videos and inspiration!
That is great feedback man, thanks for sharing that!
It's been 5 years and I still keep coming back to your videos Brian. Your tips and advice are rare to find on TH-cam. Every tip I incorporated has helped me make my lifts strong and controlled. Thanks a lot Brian!
Brian, your strength and physic are out of this world. Thanks for another great video. I have included the overhead press in my workout program ever sense I first watched the how-to video, when I first subscribed to your channel many months ago.
That is awesome man, you will never regret making that decision!
So far I haven't...Oh, and the front squat is also one of my favorites. My core muscles are like diamonds. HA!
Hahaha that's where you want to be living man!
"Ask Santa." Had me in stitches aha!
Hahah glad you liked it!
just the dead pan stare of death feat. santa hat. Couldn't cope.
Love how your videos are entertaining and informative. You've inspired me to start my own you-tube channel as soon as I'm done with this terms work load and have a spare minute
That would be awesome man, i will check it out when you do!
390 that just beautiful... gr8 pr brother! 👊
Thanks so much man!
Awesome video Brian, I really like the overhead walking to increase stabilization. I found that once I get close to my max that keeping my core tight becomes a big issue. ill incorporate this into my training. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much man, i really appreciate it!
Brian you explain the movement very well, funny, and great editing of you videos. Keep up the good work and GOD BLESS.
Thanks so much brother, i really appreciate that!
nice PR! I've been programming waiter walks as a finisher on ohp day since you last mentioned them in your programming ohp video. takes me 180 steps to circuit the basketball court. barbell and dumbbell both. some days for weight, some days for speed. 2 days ago, I hit my 6-weeks-ago 1rm for four reps. yeah man... the proof is in the improvement. big thanks as always, Brian!
That is awesome feedback man, thank you so much for sharing!
That was incredibly good. For some reason there's not a lot of good videos on improving push and jerk press are related to strongman so this perfectly hits that spot. Thanks a lot!
That is awesome, i am glad it was helpful!
Im so glad i started watching your videos. I went from only training bench squat and deadlift, and it causing shoulder problems to working in strongman stuff and im hooked. My shoulder feels better than ever now and i just ohp 245 not 390 but im getting there
The strict OHP is a really cool lift. A very nice way to test you strength and I consider it one of the 4 big lifts (as opposed to the 3). It also makes my shoulder+abs day much more interesting. Without it my shoulder+abs day would just be boring and tedious, honestly.
I completely agree man. My strict press (with an axle) id up to 300 but I am hoping to test it soon to see if that has went up at all. Hopefully it has.
i love in your videos when it goes greyscaled. its almost like another personality taking over and replying and apart of a conversation with us.... ITS JUST REALLY cool and unique
Another great video! I literally laughed out loud at "ask Santa". Keep up the great content!
Hahah Glad you liked it!
Damn all of this mans content are sheer nuggets of gold. The force is strong with this one.
Hahaha thanks man!
You are too strong. Should violate the laws of physics or something.
Hahaha depends who i am standing next to. Compared to top guys in my sport, I am barely above average
Brian Alsruhe I don't know if that's true, at least for your push press. The only guy I knew of doing more than you would be that Russian Olympic lifter Dimitri klokov, but he's ridiculous too.
It really is incredible watching people OHP or push press double the weight I can. It's cool to know that's even humanly possible.
Dude, there are numerous guys in the 231 Strongman weight class that can put over 400lbs over their heads and countless Oly lifters who do it effortlessly. Seriously. This is good for me, but not great comparatively. Even Rich Froning can do something like 385 or something like that. i appreciate the kind words but the pool is VERY deep and i am still in the shallow end
@Large Coke 😂😭
@Large Coke I wouldn't have lolol.
Came here after watching your OHP/PushPress video on Omar's channel, so sincere and straight to the point. Great work and content, my friend. Subbed for sure :)
That was a great vid
damn you can strict ohp 300? subbed for that alone. my next goal is 205..... I was super happy to hit bw strict lol
KaelinSaint thanks buddy
Yea man, You can find the 300 Strict press video on my channel, it wasn't that long ago and I think you are doing awesome man! It wasn't that long ago that i was where you are at!
Brian Alsruhe thanks for the love from both of you. just found your channel. gonna binge watch your stuff during xmas downtime
Thanks for doing that man!
BW strict is not bad actually. If you jerk it,you will lift way more. I guess you're stronger now though.
great video and great tips. can't wait to try out some of these exercises and you make a point about the front squat.
Everyone be nice to Brian jeez. He even says be nice to each other! Brian man, baby PRs are still PRs.Congratulations on your PR!! Some people at my gym only make a deal if you go 20lbs. They dont care about 5lbs or 10lbs. Thanks to you, I think if its an increase you are winning and if you fail somehow you learn. Awesome video man!
"Ask Santa" I burst out laughing. That was freakin awesome
That that is awesome Chelsey, thank you!
Annoyed at myself that I have only just discovered your channel. This is gold, subbed! (Also, I see not one, but two Scotland flags in your gym... fuck yes my man)
Hahah thanks man, i really appreciate that!
very interesting! didn't think I would learn anything but I did!
I am humbled Paul, I hope there’s more on the channel that you can learn
Bands for the over head what is this alphadestiny?
I don't know what alpha destiny is
Right on man, i'll have to check him out!
I wanted one of his vids man but haven't had a much time to watch much stuff lately. Got a lot on my plate!
Brian Alsruhe he has actually mentioned you a few times and has told that you have great content
Yea honestly i know you from alpha destiny.
Love the video! I hate how purists get caught up in symantics and hate on lifters from other disciplines for saying things "wrong." I'm just happy people are pushing themselves and trying to be strong and healthy
I love to front squat! Got some new exercises to include in my routine now too. Thanks a lot.
Glad it was helpful brother!
Why have I not stumbled onto this guys videos till just now? SUBBED! Thank you for your service to our country brother!
Thanks for checking them out man!
No thank you! 390 miltary press? Jesus dude I'm still working on 135 lol
Nah man, my military or strict press is at 300. The 390 is with leg drive but we call ALL overhead movements in strongman Overhead presses. That's why i labels the video that. It seems to be getting a lot of hate for doing so though!
Impressive either way dude, of course it's getting hate probably mostly from little guys like me that are envious haha. Keep your pimp hand strong
Hahah thanks man, i appreciate that!
...and then, suddenly, Buff Santa appeared.
Hahahaha!
What a beast
Thanks man!
Brian, what happen to the cricket? So how is circus dumbbell coming Along? Just kidding, love your videos. Look forward to them. You keep this 47 yr old motivated....
Hahaha i think he left for the winter my friend!
Best damn channel on TH-cam, great stuff Brian. Congrats on the PR, going for those small 5lb gains has done wonders for my training. Btw lol'd at "ask Santa" and "stay-bility"
Hahaha thanks man!
You ae so informational and entertaining! Thanks you for your time
Great video as always Brian! I never would have thought to incorporate front squats and banded ohp; I'll have to put them in my program! This is totally weird and out there weird but your personality and wisdom make it seem like you'd be a great father.
Hahaha I'm glad you think so, but I don't think i would. i don't have a ton of patience
So glad i found your channel.
Really looking forward to implement your training program into my training.
Keep up the fantastic work and advice
That is awesome man, thanks for checking it out!
Love the videos, I'll never quite be a strongman but I really like trying the tips and workouts you do in the videos, keep them coming man!!
That is awesome man, thank you!
Perfect timing! It just happens to be press night, tonight. I'll have to give a couple of these a go.
That's awesome James!
Just subscribed and really enjoying your channel. Not only are you are strong, but you give great info and are super funny.
That is great, thank for doing that!
I had to go back and re-watch the ask Santa shout out. It was great, another great one Brian
Hahaha thanks Tyler!
One of the best channels on here great info and the best thing is he's grateful 💪💪💪💪💪
Thank you so much for saying this!
Brian Alsruhe all good man
2nd his recommendation for front squat increasing overhead push press. Put 50 lbs on my front squat and my push press ohp increased significantlybecause of the leg drive. Also added close grip incline, low reps, heavy weight to help with lock outs
new favorite channel.this dude is a beast.
Thanks man, that is an awesome thing to say!
Thanks for the video, there aren't many videos on the overhead press out there. The overhead press is one of my lifts I perform once a week. I was pressing 225, but it's closer to 200 now. Those were some good exercises in the video that I'm eager to try and that I would never learn from commerical gym trainers. Actually, in commercial gyms, very few even bench press in the 200's. My bench is 350 and members at my commercial gym think that's, "incredible."
Glad it is helpful man, i also have video tutorials on the strict press and OHPs involving leg drive if you want more tips
your videos inspire me to NEVERSATE my thirst for strength!
I was gonna get a chest supported row for Xmas, but I think you have talked me into a yoke. Thanks for sharing. Great video.
Hahaha you will definitely get more out of yoke...and your soul will hate me...
This is when you have mad respect for weightlifters and strong man! I think ive seen klokov push press 500 lbs.. And I remember thinking to myself wtf I can barely hold 225 above my head.
Man in the 2015 competition of WSM Under 105kg the best lifted overhead the same weight as you did.
Why dont you try to participate to WSM under 105kg ?
It's a split jerk ;) It's not a pretty one but it's definitely not a push press because you dip to catch. It's also not a push jerk because your stance changes to a split stance. I'd recommend hitting these different lifts (with lighter weight to start) specifically to notice their differences and learn each of them better. I gave your video a like because your accessory exercises are actually good and you explain stuff simply for those who aren't personal trainers :D
Kristian gILLAND Those are oly lifting terms. In strongman it does not matter.
Always motivated by your vids
thought it would be strict pres with no leg drive while reading the title! lol
Yea man, in Strongman anything overhead is called an Overhead press
I literally just bought all of the rogue bands early this afternoon I will have to give that exercise a try at the end of my workout thanks for the video
They have made a huge difference in my training man!
My strict barbell OHP is 170/75, my barbell push press is 200. My strict log press is probably 180 (Ive done 172 for 2). I haven't tested my log push press max yet. Shoulders are a weaker point for me, working to make them not so.
Dan Agin strict 175 for me. For 2
you have earned a subscriber my friend, impressive lift and interesting video, tons of good information. thank you for the time you put into these uploads.
Thanks you so much man, i really appreciate that!
I'm a powerlifter down in Glen Burnie (about 45 min from your gym)! Subscribed!
I love seeing the WHOLE workout
Sorry about that man, but I just don't want to upload a 1.5 hour 4k video. It takes 2-3 hours to render an 8 minute on like this.
always good information and the editing is funny too
Thank you so much!
The OHP is my weakest lift with my max being just 50 kgs with a BW of 71. Thanks for all the tips sir.
Absolutely man!
man your videos are perfect brother I am gonna try overhead press
I used to be a weightlifter, and everyone is wrong.
That's actually a power jerk, and a very impressive one.
My squat PR is 395... this is insane. Killer job dude. Strict OHP at 300 is also way outside of what I can even imagine.
What are your thoughts on the Z Press? Kalle Beck recommends them very highly for increasing OHP max. Have you used them at all in your training?
I use Z presses virtually every single shoulder day. I think they are one of the best things out there!
it's a bad ass assistance ex
awesome stuff as usual
Thank you!
amazing stuff, thanks for the pro tips
the bamboo lift looks fun as hell also the santa bit was hysterical!
That ask Santa bit just killed me. My core is too sore for jokes man.
Hahah Glad you liked it!
I did, but I love the vids man.
Thank you, I really appreciate that!
Amazing work Brian! I have been lifting for 6 months - next years goal is 1 x bodyweight overhead (225lbs)
....its not there yet... or anywhere close.
I was there at one time as well my friend. Just keep getting better each day. You will surprise yourself!
Thanks Brian!!
Happy to help man!
very informative stuff man
so much knowledge bombs for strength
keep up the hard work
💪😎
That's awesome man thanks for saying that!
Just discovered ur channel man and I love it!! Keep it up
Thanks so much for checking it out!
that awkward moment when he got more than my deadlift pr over his head...
Awesome info Brian.
Another day, another PR for Brian :-) Awesome lift man!
Thanks brother!
Wow man. Wow.
Thanks for making some great videos. Very good information and funny.
Thanks so much for watching brother!
Dammit man! Now I need to hold a reindeer hostage till Santa gets me a yoke. Great PR brother!
E Church Make sure its Rudolph. He's the most important one hehehehe
Hahaha i think that is a solid plan!
🎼 Rudolph with your nose so bright - won't you buy my yoke tonight? 🎶
i vant even feaflift 390 - great work Brian!
Awsome Brian already looking forward to the 400 🖒💪
I hope it is soon than later but thank you!
Hey Brian. How would you explain the benefit/carryover of a thick bar press for one's strict oh press? Are there carry overs, or is the use of the thick bar a more sport specific thing for strongman?
Maybe the only reason not many people do heavy overhead presses is because it's hard. Great point on the front squat - perfect prep for an overhead lift.
You did pushpre$$e$ and overhead pre$$e$. Strong strict-reps perfectly done. You strong as fuck man. Totally badasss underrated lifts.
Killer work Brian 😲💪🏼
subscribed 30 sec in the video... great personality. no alpha male bullshit.. great content.. thanks for the inspiration
wow that was all some thanks and God Bless You
Thanks man, i appreciate that and you too!
Beast mode!!! Good job!
Thanks man!
Found you through Omar, appreciated your content: subbed.
Awesome , Thanks !
Thanks for watching man!
You, sir, are a beast.
Assistance movements:
Yoke Waiter's Walk OR DB Waiter's Walk
Band Overhead Press
Bamboo Overhead Press
Front Squat
inspirational
Hay man that's incredible so cool
The Waiter Walks are killer...I love it!
Awesome video as always Brian! Thanks for the assistance movements they're awesome! I tried the overhead walk movement the other day.. my gym doesn't have a yoke so I used the kettle bells instead. It is crazy hard but I felt great afterwards!Also, wondering if some point in the future you could do a video about some assistance workouts for the front squat! Lately I've been playing around with the overhead squat. I know, it's more of a Oly movement than a strongman movement, but it feels good lol. And I'll confess, but this is embarrassing: my 1rm for front squat is well over 250lbs... yet my overhead squat hovers around a measly 100lbs... less than half my front squat!! :(
Sure thing man, i will definitely add that to my list!
Big fan of banded overhead press. It can be humbling. haha Great video congrats on the PR.
VERY humbling!
subscribed. thanks for the tips!
Pushjerk? LOL. and...what he was trying to say was, "don't be a jerk" Always good advice. Klokov did strict 160 kg, which was very impressive, especially for his bodyweight.
Semper Fidelis!
watched a few of your videos now just one question... how the hell do you not have alot more subscribers lol great content and overall knowledge
Hahaha if I could figure that out, i may be able to do something with this youtube stuff!
Keep on doing what your doing man i really appreciate the time you take to share your wealth of knowledge, im sure u will get lots of subsribers soon enough!!
Thanks so much man, i hope you are right!
Must be about a 270 strict press equivalent, sick stuff man
y o brian hope your rehabing and everything moving along nicely
Damn bro 😎 beast mode!
underrated!
Hahaha!
looks like I need to get back at my front squat.
Makes all of the difference in the world man!
What makes a front squat so effective to help the ohp?
Also big props on the channel. Found you after you and Alan did the collaboration and so glad I did. I have told so many people about the channel. I just jacked my buddy's phone, subbed him and said "you need to watch and learn".
wild bill The Front Squat is great for strengthening the core. And core strength is essential for stability during OHP. :-)
BulkMeister ah. Was thinking it helps with leg drive as it is a kick ass quad exercise.
It definitely helps A TON!
