160x8, 195x3
standing, strict - no leaning back, no leg drive. And no belt
back when I used to train my upper body, all I do is squat these days 
close grip benching helps em a lot, I could close grip bench 295lbs back then with no arch or leg drive. The ratio between the 2 lifts has always been around 70% for me
hit 65kg/145lbs for 5x5 today.
no idea what sort of single number i could throw up.
80kg/176 pounds strict @ 115kgBW
Military press really irritates the hell out of my shoulders, so I canāt go real heavy on this.
2 weeks ago I hit a PR on seated BB press past my chin (around 3-4 inches from my chest) of 205 pounds. Iām usually good for 185 for 3 or 4. Canāt wait for 225
215x5 strict press.
Did 125 for 5, 5, 3 the other day, have done 140 for the same in the past when I was heavier. Guessing my 1RM is 155 or a little more. Always been a lift Iāve had trouble making progress on, as opposed to seated dumbbell pressing.
did a one arm press of 88lbs with a kettlebell at 176lbs bodyweight for a PR.
Strict press is 255x1
Seated is 225x6
In comparison to 275x6 close grip bench and 315x5 bench.
This has been my best so farā¦
175x1
That was a little over a month ago at a BW of about 180. I think its decently strict. I got it again a little easier in a subsequent workout.
Iāve wanted a strict BW press for awhile and feel Iām almost there. Actually, I havenāt overhead pressed much since then and my bench has shot upā¦so I think I could get it now. Hmmmā¦might have to try next time.
push press 135x4
I was told i can used more leg drive, my drive is not good enough, i need more explosion on my driveā¦that was i was told.
Anyway not strong vs some numbers here!

You motherbitch! Youāre 24?
I need to start eating more. Maybe I should get a place nearer to my gym.
I do my last set with 185 3-5. Many people are reluctant to do a max with this exercise because its an easy one to get injured with.

Damn. Nice.
Howās yout shoulder development in relation to your chest?
what is considered āstrictā
% ROM used here varies very highly, i believe.
135 clean for reps and push press 175.I like this lift alot.
185 with a grip a little less than my bench, from below my chin.
295- push press or log more
Chump weight- 225 is my best ever. I think shove more up but my instability and lack of coordination would probably no allow it. But pin presses from ear height, I have hit 315 for a double.
