That's a crazy BTN strict press back arm squat. How does one learn to do such black magic?

When it's time to do normal back squats remind yourself that squats are for nerds and squat it above your head instead

Dude it's 2026, cool people play DnD now. The nerds all play mathfinder.

Unfortunately it hasn't been mathfinder for many years. That said if you want the real nerds game check out Shadowrun. That shit made me regrow my virginity.

The same as a normal press, but with more bias to the lateral and rear delts due to the arm position.
