Thread: Sitting or standing?

first of all ...nice avatar

and second you do less cause you use more muscle to stabilize your self muscles that are not as strong as your shoulders

Also, be careful not to arch your back while standing. You might not even realize you do it, but that could very well be the cause of your lower back pain.

Standing is my preferred method but I do both. More standing push presses then strict military.

yea thanks..recently got into gangster flicks.

hmm to prevent my back from arching i use a staggered stance. but i think ill try mixing it up.

start in kneeling, or half kneeling. work up to standing.

There was a thread on this a while ago.. Due to that convo I decided to go with standing.. Better form, and more muscles used to stabalize.. IMO anything that hits more muscle is better

I do it sitting because even sitting I have a problem not arching my back because I have a natural big arch which makes my arse look big. But it also makes my back look huge but then again it makes me look like I have a pot if I ever don't tense.

Thank christ im not the only freak out there with an arched back, that makes me look like a middle aged truck driver. my self esteem has just been boosted for life. Sway backs rule!!!!!

just work on your lower back
I figured out that i had a weak lower back and started working on it and slowly but surely my back is getting less arched
