Nice man!!
It seems to be one of the weaker lifts for most people. I hit 205# strict for 2 raw a few days ago...still cutting though, so I'm sure I could hit 225#+ raw if I had enough calories in my system
Personally, strict OHP is all about technique / how explosive you can be. What's helped me tremendously is keeping tight (closer grip, narrow stance, activating your core, and pushing through your balls
: )...deep breath in, engage your core, activate your posterior chain, barbell to your chest, and explode up
Will try to get vid next time to show what my technique is like...
Edit: also, Mark Rippetoe's the GOAT. I think he's said Strict OHP is more important than bench, and I couldn't agree more...
