Dumbbell Push Press
Overhead PowerWHAT IS IT
The Dumbbell Push Press is one of the most HYROX-specific accessory lifts. It bridges the strict dumbbell press and the full thruster, teaching you to drive overhead with the legs, which is exactly the mechanic that keeps a hundred wall balls moving.
HOW TO DO IT CORRECTLY
- 1Hold a dumbbell in each hand at shoulder height, elbows in front of the bar of the bell.
- 2Brace the core and dip a few inches by bending the knees, keeping the torso upright.
- 3Drive hard through the legs and use that momentum to punch both bells overhead.
- 4Lock the arms out fully with the bells stacked over the shoulders.
- 5Lower under control back to the shoulders and go straight into the next rep.
