Should OHP be performed slow and controlled or explosively?

Explosive push (doesn't mean do a push press - keep the body tight but explode with the shoulders)

Controlled descent.

>Controlled descent.

You mean the way this guy's doing it?

That descent actually looks good. Didn't expect that.

I used to kinda just let it fall down. But I would get pain or at least weird feelings in my wrist. I believed it was due to the pressure of stopping the bar from an uncontrolled descent. Ever since I'm doing it more carefully it stopped.

right before i OHP i take a big deep breath and so for the first few reps 5ish my head feels light as fuck but my core is tight as fuck, then i exhale at the bottom and take another breath.

i explode going up and go slow going down, this is teh correct way to ohp right?

slow enough on the descent that you can control it
you can go slower if you like doing eccentric training. Always explosive up so long as you maintain form

I always OHP in the squat rack, just wait your turn little bitch

Random question but I feel a clicking sensation in my shoulders when doing OHP on the way to full extension. Is this a rotator cuff issue perhaps?

>he is too weak and fat to clean his weight

Explosive = cheating sack of shit that needs to use momentum to help him bring the bar up. I bet you losers do kipping pull ups too

Slow and steady gets you gains OP.

Try dumbbells. Shoulder mobility might be to shitty for barbells

whatever works, as long as you don't bend your knees and lock out it counts

I think you're confusing "explosiveness" with push pressing.
