Alright motherfuckers, let's end the debate. State your cases, is it acceptable to do The Press™ In the squat rack? I do it all the time, I thinking cleaning it is faggy hippie crossfit bullshit
>not cleaning the press to fire up your cns for pressing
>being a man
pick one
only if there's no power cage
>>40132361
So if there's a power cage, is it chill to both squat and press in it?
>>40132340
I do it and I am not planning on stopping. My gym has 2 cages and 4 squat racks though
>>40132361
>literally banging the bar at the top of every rep
What are you a manlet?
Or maybe you don't do full ROM
>>40132357
OP here, is there something to this?
Sometimes I clean the weight, sometimes I don't. It really all depends on how I feel.

{reasonable median intensifys}
I've never done a power clean.
Also, back problems. Can't squat, deadlift or pendlay row. It sucks.
>>40132466
Put it on the outside you fucking jeb
Homegym, so I can do what I want.
If I want to clean, I do that separate

Sorry, I'm asking ACTUAL gym goers who don't suffer from autism.

DB press is the better movement. Apart from that, whenever I used to do OHP I did it mostly in half racks. Not a problem for me, and I don't care if it is for others.
>>40132470
No. The weight you're OHP-ing will likely be way too light for that single clean to do anything. Unless you have shit lower body and core strength.
I intentionally curl and press in the squat rack. Pisses off all the T Rex and Crossfit fags at my gym.

Some home gyms have better equipment than your "real" gym, brah.
>>40132340
It's acceptable, but squatters have the priority. So if someone wants to squat there, you take your barbell somewhere else.
>>40132340
I do it in the squat rack, I like the extra But if safety. But I have to take it out and clean it if there's only a cage cause I'm too tall
>>40133152
Lol cuck
>>40133152
absolutely cuck
>>40132340
not even a debate, of course use the rack, im not gonna jeapordize fucking my shoulders by doing 1rep clean and jerk at the beginning of every set by using the bars on the floor
>>40132340
The fuck is the problem with cleaning it. If your OHP isn't baby weight for cleaning you got problems.
I think if the gym is busy you should grab a barbell and press it as it's more courteous and looks cool too.
>>40133125
Holy shit wow dude all that stuff looks nuts I'm sorry i ever doubted you. So much more than my gym
Wow...
>>40133125
Is this home gym built on the side of a cliff? How the fuck do you even get the bar out of the cage with any weight on it?
>>40132940
i always press more if i clean it first instead of pressing it from a literal dead stop
>>40133925
Push presses are obviously easier than strict presses.
>>40132340
The gym I go to has 14 squat racks, uni gym, so I'll OHP where I please.
