Overhead barbell presses : STRICT PRESS vs PUSH PRESSES. Strict presses are good for beginners but advance lifters or gym freaks may gain more muscle & strength too through push presses by lifting more weights & explosive movement by using a little dip & push explosively. Explosive push ensures more muscle fibre recruitment & thus more hypertrophy. Added benefit is that your bench strength also increases when you lift heavy in push presses.
