Im here at the Jr. World Championships in Russia and during our training session, U.S. Team member, Jesse Bradley performed these Split Position Strict Presses (aka Split Presses). Ive actually heard several different names for it over the years. Ive mentioned this exercise before as I feel it is a great drill to develop comfort in the Split Position. Whats important is that it is less about the weight on the bar and more about the stability of the stance. If you load up too much, the athlete will end up changing their stance during flexion just to accommodate the load. This defeats the purpose. Check it out!
