>>39803128

Because it's fucking hard and not alot of people can do it.

>>39803151
Start with lower weight?

>>39803128

>>39804089

Because its not exactly a well known exercise outside of the weightlifting world.

>>39803224
it's a mobility issue. the vast majority of lifters couldn't even do the empty bar

>>39804167

Why even use this? Use someone who makes fun of their own mobility like mark bell

>>39804167

his back looks like a pussy
would fuck

Reminder if you do Klokov presses or any other kind of behind the neck presses with sup-par shoulder mobility you will slowly perforate your rotator cuff, which will lead to a very bad time.

Why not just do a Bradford press?

A movement like klokovs could lead to a shoulder injury in amateurs

You have to be flexible enough to have that bottom position. Its not difficult if you can do a recline hero pose.

>>39806485
He can strict press more than most people can bench: 162kg/360lbs

>>39806942

He's also an olympic weightlifter who's won world championships and silver medals at the olympics. He's also been training since he was a teenager and has been on gear his entire career

>>39806982
Even if you did all that, you still wouldn't be pressing what he presses.

Its called a sots press you fucking mongs

>>39806982
If you did all that, you wouldnt be anywhere near as strong as him.

>>39807673
Sots press -> Press from front of shoulders with normal press grip in a squat position.

Klokov press -> Press from behind the neck with a snatch grip in a squat position.

>>39805849
But how do I Klokov Press without those traps?

>>39803128
>>39803128

Because we don't have the flexibility and ROM like Klokov.

Working on it though.

>>39804089
It's not unhealthy for your ankle. Your ankle is designed to bend in every direction and bear a load in that direction as long as you slowly build it up.

For the knee, it might look like there's some lateral bend in the knee. But what's really happening is his hips are externally rotating at the same degree the ankles are. This results in the femur, knee, and shin bone being perfectly aligned so there are no chances you'll snap one of your ligaments.

>>39806808
You obviously don't

I'm assuming from the picture that it's a behind the neck ohp, in a slav squat position. So why not call it the slav press?
