Push · main movement

Single-arm overhead press

Single-arm overhead press is a push movement selected only when the exact equipment, support and space are available today.

The decision

When this movement makes sense

The 2 documented configurations use One adjustable dumbbell or One kettlebell and budget 45 seconds for setup before sets and rest are counted.

When this changes

If any required condition —clear space overhead— cannot be confirmed, or the available load does not match the recorded configuration, the engine chooses another movement instead of improvising.
