is there a difference between the side press & the bent press? i’m excited for the single-arm challenge…except for this lift.

Yes, there is a big difference in the performance of the lifts. A side press is, literally, a press, whereas a bent press is more a matter of just getting under the bar by lowering the torso to a very low position. The bent press is extremely difficult to learn and many lifters, including me, never master it. Anyone, however, can do a side press.

Jarrod, The side press with the bar is not really as difficult as you would think it would be. It won’t be the most difficult lift in the Dino Challenge. You will find the one arm BP more difficult. Al

al, for no reason whatsoever i started training the one arm BP a couple months ago. i was really excited to see that one as part of the lifts, i’ve got my eye on my first record!
