Getting Euan To Shape

The second of the big compound lifts (after last week's squat Post) is the overhead press or OHP for short.
This is a great exercise focusing on the deltoids (shoulder muscles) but using many muscles like the pectorals and glutes to assist.
I've added in an upright row to the start of the move as this also incorporates the deltoids.

Compound lifts use multiple muscles and joints similtanously.
The first of four main compound lifts is the back squat (back relating to where the bar sits). This exercise works the glutes, hamstrings and quadriceps as well as your core to stabilise.
Getting a good balanced stance, and keeping the back straight and chest up are where many people falter. But with a few quick hints and tips this can be fixed.
