How much do you Military press?

[guldukat]

I havent done military press in a year due to my rotator cuff, but since some yuppie was using the hammer strength I gave it a shot again today. I managed to put up 225lbs for 10 reps, right to the upper chest, not bad for a years lay off

ROTF. A yuppie

225x10 ain't bad, period! After not doing it for a year...day-um Nice.

I was pretty happy, pisses me off though, cuz if I hadnt been hurt, i would be pressing close to 315 for reps by now. Shoulder was a little tender but I may stick with it for a bit, that way I can avoid the machine hogging yuppie bastards

got the 90lb dumbells for 7 tonight, seated press. Most ive ever tried. Next week ill try the 100's. Seated military barbell max 225x3 (front), havent done them in a while though

Best I've done so far is standing military press 165.

225 5x5

Only the real men have the 45's on the bar for their militaries...(185 here for reps).

Did 140 seated for an easy 4 sets of 6 the other day which sadly enough was a fuckin pr for me.

This poll is flawed!!!!!

A military press is done standing, unsupported, with a barbell. No leg drive. You can not do a military press seated and you surely can't do a military press in a fucking smith machine.

IMO seated is harder then standing even without any drive.
