Been doing the bottum up KB presses for years now. I had rotator cuff & labrum surgery at 25. I turn 40 this summer it's helped me a great deal. Still pushing solid weight today. I also highly recommend it.
All so true... likewise I began 9 years ago at age 50 incorporating these variations of Bottoms-Up Presses & holds/carries/tgus and they have solidified my shoulders & made rotator cuffs more resilient to injury.
I luv these exercises. Little did I know I’ve been doing some of these without knowing they were a legit thing😂 I hold a small one with my arm at a 90&do small circles in both directions. My version of the overhead press starts from my thigh&at the top I try to extend a few inches past full extension. Any advice on if I could be hurting something’s unknowingly? Aloha from Hawaii🤙🏽💪🏽
Just started doing these and I already feel the difference. I can do 10lbs with solid form and 15lbs well with my right hand, but I struggle with 15lbs with my left arm.
Awesome vid! During the straight arm waiter's carry, would you recommend the scapula be retracted or raised? I notice when I do these with full scapular retraction, it's much more difficult to keep a locked elbow, but when it's raised, it seems like the rotator cuff is not getting worked as effectively
My personal trainer has me do the walking overhead version of this. Initially I've found it really counter-intuitive for hand/wrist health as it would make my wrists hurt like crazy holding the KBs with so much tension to prevent them from slipping. It makes me worry since I've been playing piano, guitar, and drums my whole life as well as working a computer job, so my wrists undergo a lot of constant movement and repetitive stress; and at age 37 I am concerned about future possibilities of carpal tunnel etc. However my PT tells me they will in fact improve my wrist strength making me less prone to issues. I am noticing after doing them off and on a couple months that I'm able to execute a walk across the room without letting the KB drop which was impossible when I started, so I guess that's progress. Curious to hear your thoughts on this, thanks!
Kettlebell is such a overrated sport .it has enormous effect on the body ship and brain and mode .It can be a good replacement with demble and expensive gym fee
Thank you so much for watching! What other topics do you want us to cover?
My grip has become insane. Im able to crush a walnut. These are great. The groove is REAL with these.
These are soooo hard!!! But so good for my scoliosis which makes my left shoulder slant down. I feel so much more aligned when i do these

I had a rotator cuff injury a while back and a bottoms up press was one of the most helpful exercises I did. I still use it for stability and grip.

@@King_Kenlee PT had me doing 2x30 at a manageable weight which I did every day. These days I'll do 10-12 rep sets when I train shoulders.

Hi i have discloated my shoulder 4 times i was told i have a hill sachs lesion is there any exercises or physiotherapy i can do thanks
Can you do a video on how to fix ribs flare?
I do that everyday!!!
How much weight do you recommend starting with? Like maybe a % of your normal db overhead press? Thanks
Could I do it with a dumbbell? I was thinking about the 90 degree walk
Nobody answered. I'm sure it is worth ago as I think balance is the key. Light weight obviously
Bottoms up ohp with 24 kg is goals.
gold
Can i do it with a normal weight;
Shoulder pressing with anything is better than shoulder pressing with nothing at all. Just keep training and learing😊
Yeah now try it with a 80 lbs kettle bell
Any exercise - "now try it with a heavier weight"
Lmao. He, or you, or anyone can do that if they want to seriously hurt themselves.
