Standing or Sitting? I still don't know how I feel about Standing Presses. I feel I get more isolation with sitting.

Awesome work Ed.

You hit way more stabilizers on standing. Including your core. Staying strict, I can feel my heels drive into the ground making it a whole body lift. Sitting is more isolation and has it's place too.

I always do mine standing, for the reasons Cellardweller said.

Awesome work Ed.

Thanks man! It was a nice change of pace from the treadmill or elliptical. Probably more beneficial too.

Abs were good, hamstrings, that's another story. My hammies and right adductor were cramping like crazy last night!
