Log Press Overview

The Log Press is a powerful strength-building exercise that involves lifting a log-shaped implement from the ground to overhead, engaging the entire body with a primary focus on the shoulders, triceps, and core.

Muscles Worked

Equipment Needed

Log (Strongman implement)

How To Perform the Log Press

  1. Start with the log on the ground and stand with your feet shoulder-width apart.
  2. Bend at the knees and hips to squat down, gripping the handles of the log with a neutral grip.
  3. Lift the log to your lap by extending your hips and knees, then rest it on your thighs while maintaining a strong core.
  4. Explosively extend your hips and knees to stand up, rolling the log up to your chest and transitioning it to the rack position against your upper chest.
  5. Brace your core, take a deep breath, and press the log overhead by extending your arms fully, keeping the log close to your face.
  6. Lock out your elbows at the top of the movement, then carefully lower the log back to the rack position.
  7. Return the log to the ground by reversing the movement, maintaining control throughout.
