405 lb. Standing Overhead Press

[vdizenzo]

Here are my lifts from today's APA meet here in CT. I weighed 302. I was very happy with my performance because I have quite a cold. Also, there were only five of us competing in this event so I completed all three lifts in about a ten minute time span.

A special thanks to Rhodes and Drew for helping me out today. I can be quite a diva. I also want to thank Chris and Daniel. I feel confident the supplements from AtLargeNutrtion are helping me a great deal. I am hitting pr's at 39.

[OneLiftOneKill]

Are you wearing some kind of bench shirt in this video? It says Inzer on it, the only reason I ask.

[mosley1990]

405 should not be above someones head

[Jonah]

Sick lifting man! Great job!

[Ben Moore]

That's some ridiculous shoulder strength Vincent! Awesome work.

We actually call them t-shirts around here. You can buy them on Inzer's site. I'd prefer you to buy EliteFTS, but that's cool.

[RhodeHouse]

Cenzo,

Awesome work today. I've been around you for 4 years, now. That was as impressive as your 600 unequipped. I'm looking forward to your run in Feb. It'll be a great ride. Talk to you soon, bro. Rest up! Go Cowboys!

[Ryan Celli]

Vinny,
That was just awesome. Strict as can be and strong! Congrats.
And I know what you mean about Atlarge supplements, I wouldn't be hitting the numbers I'm hitting without them.

Um do you realize that what I just finally deadlifted on Friday for the first time ever, you are pressing over your head? You, my friend, are a beast.

[TheVrolok]

Absolutely beautiful.

[nhlfan]

doesn't even seem possible to me lol. I feel like there should just be a line in my signature that says "nice pressing vincent", since i say it so often.

[SGT ROCK]

Solid lift. Those are not easy to do, you look good for 425 fresh. Keep pushing bro.

Semper Fi

[KarstenDD]

I am quite pleased that you were above 300 this morning. SFW, sweet cheeks.

[Travis Bell]

Vin that was absolutely crazy strong!!! I'm so freakin impressed

[chris mason]

Yeah, I love your overhead pressing power! It reminds me of the great Paul Anderson. Great job!

[Chris Rodgers]

Sick lifting Vin!! That is a beatly press.


PS- damn you make Rhodes look skinny. Get that guy a Big Mac or two!

[drew]

Impressive as hell Vin. It never gets old. I'm glad I was there to see it.

[Buccos1]

Awesome power! Great job.

[Brad08]

That was great! Not too many people putting those numbers overhead ina strict style.

But...could you BE any stockier?? LoL

[Lones Green]

nice job Vin.

i think he was wearing his special overhead press shirt. i've heard the inzer polys are great, LOL

[Brian Hopper]

Nice Lifts!!!

[Jeff Roark]

awesome Vinny that is just some massive overhead strength. The way you handled that I would say you would be 475+ on the Push Press or maybe even close to 500lbs which is super elite levels of strength.

[Tom Mutaffis]

Amazing brute strength!

[ZenMonkey]

Sick!!! Incredible work.

[Erik 23]

Very Strong i didnt know they had competitions for lifts like this.

It used to be one of the 3 Olympic Lifts: clean and jerk, clean and press, and snatch.

That's just mean. Why give a guy with bigorexia another issue? You're a bad guy.

[vdizenzo]

Thanks guys. It was a lot of fun. I am sick as a dog today. I'm lucky I did not feel this bad yesterday. Now it's time to focus on benching. I'll go back to seated ohp's. Sitting is much more fun than standing.

Rhodes, I think you look massive. Keep up the ME eating my friend.

[evilxxx]

[Mosnar]

Beastly. No other word to describe it.

[OGROK]

So are you only required to go down to your chin doing these?

[A.Johnson]

That's amazing!

[bigmoney]

[fulldaddy]

I did not expect to see a man ohp 405 with such good form. Good lord - great job. Has Harley Davidson contacted you to do a commercial yet?

[Big LaP]

I was there and saw it. That makes my top ten list of very impressive!

[connelly]

That's REALLY impressive. Good job man, if only I could deadlift what you OH press haha.

[HP666]

That is just insanely strong Vin. Very impressive.

That's what SFW is all about right there boys. :strong:

[CrazyK]

Fantastic lift. It's awesome that after become such a good bencher that you have the shoulder mobility to do a strict OHP with that kind of weight.

[Kong]

Awesome and inspiring!

[no regrets]

That was incredible.

[Sidior]

Poo my pants impressive.

[Ben Moore]

Very impressive shoulder power. :strong:

How did you tailor your training routine/split to focus on overhead pressing?

[BFGUITAR]

This is one of those "wtf" moments. Amazing job man, I can't even imagine holding that much weight like that.

[Painzer]

Seriously insane Raw power. Very Impressive.

[vdizenzo]

Very impressive shoulder power. :strong:

I used the 5-3-1 method for about 5 weeks on my bench day. I would board press, bench, shoulder press on Friday's. Squat, crunches, and curls Sunday, and deadlift, t-bar rows, and underhand pulldowns on Tuesday.

I don't really train the movement. I do them seated on ocassion nowadays. I used to do them seated once a week. I just think it's residual strength.

[AlMohr]

Thats a huge press!!! congrats
