I'd like to think it still is. Having said that, I'd also like to point out that improving your military press — and especially working toward heavier presses — is a noble path filled with just as many dangers as rewards. And it's NOT because military pressing is inherently bad for you. Quite the opposite. Military pressing is great for the developing shoulders' strength AND muscle. But anything done mindlessly will hurt your body. Call it the 'mindless-body connection' if you will. So how do you mold a mighty military press without destroying your shoulders in the process? I'm glad you asked, chum. There are a few ways, which (as you have probably surmised) I cover in this fine episode of Ye Olde Hammere Caste.
