Upper body vertical stability
Today we are tackling Upper Body Vertical Stability. The Single-Arm Overhead Press is our tool to build resilient shoulders and a core that refuses to buckle under pressure.
The Goal: The 10-Rep Symmetry Standard.
The Rule: You do not move up in weight until your weak side matches your strong side for 10 clean reps.
Your Setup Checklist:
✅ The Core Shield: Squeeze the glutes and lock the ribs down.
✅ The Pinky Drive: Rotate the wrist to open the shoulder joint.
✅ The Active Negative: Pull the weight down under control; don't just drop it.
📊 POST YOUR DATA BELOW:
• Weight: [e.g., 35lbs]
• Weak Side Reps: [e.g., 7 reps]
• Strong Side Reps: [e.g., 10 reps]
📸 FORM CHECK:
If you feel a "pinch" or you find yourself leaning to the side to finish a rep, upload your video to the Form Check category. I’ll help you find the "leak" in your stability.
Let's see those numbers. Own the movement, then own the weight.
