Development of Physical Power
Here is an article from the
past that I think you will really like if you are into strength training which
is a great characteristic in being a Warrior Dad.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF PHYSICAL POWER -
Chapter 14 - The Bent Press
Constant practice is the only way in which one may succeed in raising a heavy
weight in this position. It will, no doubt be useful to read below how the
lift is performed, but it will be no use to expect an immediate increase in
your present lift simply by reading my instructions as to this position.
PRACTICE is the great thing, all the time endeavoring to find a position which
will
suit yourself. I will describe the bar-bell lift, as in a bar-bell more may be
raised than in any other way. The bell may be raised with two hands to the
shoulder, as described in the preceding chapter, or it may be raised to the
shoulder with a clean pull in, although, of course, when one reaches a very
heavy
weight, it is impossible to get it to the shoulder except by raising two
hands, and this is allowed in all professional contests, unless otherwise
stipulated.
