Marc Keys started to publish tutorial videos in which he talks you through the important points of our favorite exercises.
See his [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMO2dIkhX9w"]Back Squat video here[/ame] & [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uFgfihl2SY"]Bench Press here[/ame].
Here are his thoughts on the Push Press.
Update: Discussion on Reddit.
Pointers:

  • rack the bar properly on your shoulders for maximal power transfer
  • weight on heels
  • head up, slightly back
  • knees hips almost hyper extended
  • elbows up
  • keep the drive short and sharp
  • think driving the bar behind your head
  • when the bar passes eyes level, press it; “Think legs, then arms.”

what's with all the head lifting in the bench press tutorial? Is the head allowed to lift off the bench in some federations?
