So I’ve switched from Military Press to the Push Press. I have a few reasons for doing this:

  • Didn’t feel like I was making the progress I needed with Military
  • Push uses more movement that should assist with my other lifts
  • I believe Push should also work on my core a bit at the same time, and if not, it will at least let me know where I need to work on core.
  • Something new

That said, I kept my calculations I had for Military to see where I’m at since this is a new lift. I’ll run through this cycle and see what adjustments need to be made, if any.
