The Corner Barbell Press and Push Press

I like this exercise for athletes and for individuals with mild
shoulder problems (to be used instead of a dumbbell or shoulder
press). It's more specific to athletes than regular overhead
presses because of the pushing angle. It also places much less
strain on the rotator cuff than regular overhead pressing, making
it a relatively pain-free movement to those with tender
shoulders.

Simply put one end of the bar in a corner and load the weight on
the opposite end which is also used to press. Start with the bar a
few inches from your shoulders and press it upward and forward at a
45 degrees angle.
You can also perform this exercise as a push press, bending the
knees at around a 135 degree angle to push it with the legs and arm
at the same time.

You can even perform this exercise with two arms at the same
time (either as a push press or a normal press).
