The Pin Press is a great bench variation if you have pain towards the bottom of the press.

Ideally use a rig with adjustable safety's. place the safety height at or above the depth of pain. Spend time at that range until you can tolerate going into lower ranges.

Over time, lower the safety and build strength and tolerance until you return to benching normally.

It's not just about working on mobility. Practice working on positions and speed and see your snatches improve. 💪

Struggling with hand or wrist pain when snatching?

Before blaming the barbell, here are 3 key areas to look at that could be causing the issue:

1. Hook Grip Technique
Are you gripping the bar too tight or incorrectly? Poor hook grip mechanics can put unnecessary stress on your wrists and thumbs. Learn to use the grip efficiently without over-gripping.

2. Thumb Mobility
Limited thumb range can make the hook grip feel awkward or even painful. If your thumb can’t move well into position, it forces your wrist into compensating — which can lead to irritation over time.

3. Forearm Mobility
Tightness in your forearms (especially in rotation) can restrict wrist extension and make the turnover or receiving position feel forced or painful. Mobilizing this area can relieve a lot of pressure.

Addressing these might just be the fix you need to lift pain-free!

If you've been feeling tightness in the back of your leg that does not respond to, or gets worse with hamstring stretching, it might be because what you're feeling is nerve tension, not hamstring tightness.

You can use this test to differentiate between the two.

Once you know where your symptoms are coming from, you can treat them more effectively. Hamstring tightness will respond to continued stretching, while nerve tension will respond better to nerve gliding/flossing.

Static posture is not the end all be all for pain. The context matters.

Let’s use the example of a remote desk worker. Two remote desk workers can have very different postures and be equally pain-free. A third remote desk worker can have the same posture as one of them, but be experiencing pain within 30 minutes of sitting.

Posture alone is probably not the culprit but rather this individual is working outside of their capacity when sitting for 30 minutes or more. In this case, the individual’s endurance in a specific position plays a major role.

This is why when we know we’re going to be in front of a screen for a while, variability in posture is key. Whether that is a standing desk, a different sitting arrangement or chair, having multiple positions to work in so that we don’t place focal stresses on the same areas of our body will allow us to be more resistant to fatigue.

Unsure about setting up for a floor press? Here is how I like to do it.

Dumbbell variation: Place dumbbells near your hips. Keep elbows tight to your sides and rock back, keeping upper arms close to the ground. Forearms should be vertical at a 90-degree angle when ready to press. Press, then return elbows to the ground and dumbbells to your hips.

Barbell Variation: Lie under the bar, roll it to your hips, and bend your knees. Grip the bar and bridge to lift it over your chest. Perform your set. To finish, bridge again, return the bar to the hips, then lower it to the ground.
