Half-Kneeling Overhead Press

KEY POINTS

Set up in your perfect Half-Kneeling Position.

Hold the weight on the same side as your kneeling leg.

Ground down strongly into your feet.

Drop into your front hip. Angle your pelvis slightly toward your front leg.

Press your grounded knee into the floor. Can you engage your butt muscles on your kneeling leg WITHOUT tucking your pelvis?

Use your non-working hand to help brace your core and help leverage your ribs down.

Or make a fist with your non-working hand.

As you exhale, press the weight overhead.

Notice: Did you lose the contraction of the butt muscles on your kneeling leg? If so, engage them again.

Notice: Did you lose the position of your ribcage? If so, drop your ribcage down. DO NOT BACK BEND!
