What is a "press"?
In weightlifting, a press refers to a movement where a lifter pushes a barbell or other weights overhead while keeping their body still. The press is typically performed from a standing position, and the lifter uses their arms, shoulders, and core to lift the weight. It is a strict, controlled movement, meaning no leg assistance is allowed, unlike in some other lifts such as the clean and jerk.
