Push Press/Shoulder Press
If deadlifting as much weight off the ground as possible is the exercise that makes you feel the most manly, then pushing as much weight overhead as possible comes in as a close second.
The bench press receives way too much credit. It is difficult for me to imagine a scenario in life where we are we caught with our back stuck to the floor and a heavy weight extended towards the ceiling.
However, the functionality of pushing weight overhead from a standing position is incontestible. Need to put away that heavy box up in your attic? Or help lift your buddy over a tall fence when it’s time to evade and escape?
The push press will help you move heavy objects to high places and give you the broad, rounded shoulders that make women weak in the knees.
