bar in contact w/ body on OLY style press?

[Mark Rippetoe]

In a Press, should the bar be in touch with delts/clavicles/shoulder region in general when at the bottom of each rep ?

Not necessarily, because the leverage produced by the grip position trumps the touching of the delts.

It's a simple balancing test. The entertainment that everyone provides responding to all of the inane bullshit he spews far outweighs any form of popularity decrease. There's a special place in my heart for good trolls...I miss Max Faget.

Max was fabulous. I also like the guy that posts to the wrong thread -- some of the funniest shit I've ever seen.

It's kind of funny to me to realize that you actually might occassionally browse the shenanegans of E&P. Kinda like a little kid who's playing and doing something really weird, then suddenly realizes that the adults can actually see him and are watching.

I just check it occasionally. It's an excellent way to waste too much time.
