What is the Kate Press that Kate Upton does?

Ben Bruno, the trainer, said this in the caption. He spoke on the origin of the unique workout:

"We actually call this the ‘Kate Press’ because 1) she’s really good at it and 2) she unknowingly ‘invented’ it like eight years ago. We were doing regular 1-arm overhead press but overshot the weight a little bit, and she reflexively used two hands to press the weight up. At first I corrected her, but then I thought, 'that’s actually a great idea,' and we’ve been doing it ever since."

According to the post, it is a variation that "overloads the eccentric portion of the rep". It allows lifters to use a heavier weight than they'd normally be able to press up, which in turn creates a "massive training effect for the abs and shoulders". It works out a lot of aspects by doing one simple thing.
