Kettlebell Trying to get to half-body weight press.

[YoungSaxon]

I am 16yo, 115lbs, 5’6, around 10% BF

My current 1RM for single arm over-head press is 47lbs and I want to get up to at least 60lbs

I am currently doing a reverse latter program where I go up in weight when I reach 4-5sets of 3-2-1reps

any tips on programming or single arm pressing ?

Can you upload a vid of your press videos? Let's see your technique first..

Oh, and I would suggest to eat.. and eat.

You'll add more strength as you also put on some meat on your frame

as a parent I'd suggest that you speak to your parents first
- the person who buys the food in the house, and
- the person who cooks the food

Haha, @PeatandPotatoes can become a person who cooks the food. One of the most important life skills It offers you endless options for experimentation, like in Ratatouille movie

For pressing advice, RoP, as it was already said.

Like Mark said above, get your form on point and eat.

I might consider supplementing with creatine monohydrate and I would definitely recommend trying to up your protein (whole milk is your friend if you can drink it).

Other than that, look at Victorious by Zonin for some auxiliary lifts, form tips, and a one arm pressing centric program.

Go buy enter the kettlebell and get on ROP. Much more volume than you’re doing now and weight jumps slower.
