Band Pallof Overhead Press
Band Pallof Overhead Press
Purpose: Core strength and stability
Quick Coaching Cues
- Brace your core and keep your ribs down before pressing overhead.
- Press the band straight up without letting your torso rotate or lean. HOLD for 2-3 seconds overhead.
- Control the band on the way up and back down.
Common Mistakes
- Not enough resistance. If it’s too easy, move away from the anchor point a bit or switch the band to a heavier one.
- Letting the band pull the torso into rotation or side bend.
- Arching the low back instead of keeping the core braced.
- Pressing too fast and losing control of the return.
