Should I Start Focusing On Press? | Starting Strength Network Previews 

Thank u for spreading valuable strength knowledge and culture not among ur countrymen and women only but all over the world. I Am and elderly man in a far corner in Sudan still I have benefited and been motivated by ur lectures. I am doing squats and deadlifts in a safe manner. Thank u and thanks for the technology which made it possible.

_"Hey, have you seen Jimmy?"_ _"No, not ever since he joined that cult of strength in Texas."_

As soon he said his height and weight I knew what is coming 😅

I don't know which is more shocking: the amount of weight I need to gain, or the need to pay $100 to remain a member in good standing of this cult.

Where do I send the $100?

At what point do you decide to specialize in the trap bar deadlift? ...asking for a friend.

Tell Jaba the Nick it's time to start cutting

I would like to know how to program the press to specialize this movement and increase the weight?

I second of pressing 4 days a week, I do it myself and not all of those days have to be heavy. I do 2 days for volume, day 3 a lighter session focusing on form, 4th day working up to a heavy top set. works great.

Okay where should I send the money?

That at the end - I bench 365 but my deadlift max ever is 505 and my max squat is 425. 5'11" though.

If the other 2 guys showed up one morning with their handlebar moustaches shaved off would they be fired immediately?

How would one program it 4 days a week though? Two of those days will be back to back with no rest, and on a pull day?

anatoly : just clean the room and stay thin. thank you brother...

I am curious to know how the squat and deadlift numbers relate to The Press.

That Guy Fawkes skeleton is LEGIT 🎭

Re Run?

200lbs at 6'0 U NEED TO GAIN 50 LBS thats wild bro haha

Shoulder press 4x a week? Thats some dedication brothers.

the guy at the very end said it better

Cult of THE BARBELL

When people pay 400.00 for a board, you might have an unusual amount of influence over your followers... possibly becoming "cult" status...

One of the criteria for a cult is being led by a charismatic messianic figure. Just sayin....

NOBODY WILL EVER RECOVER FROM PRESSING 4X'S A WEEK.

Pressing 4x a week + the other lifts sounds gruesome and becomes much more challenging once that 24 yo kid gets a full time job, gets married, buys a house and eventually has kids, how can anyone perform well and recover from training stress and life stress? Also for some people there’s a whole lot to life other than the gym
