    Good job man.
    I got 2pl8 once, only once.
    Absolutely fricking caused shoulder pain and never ever tried to come close again.
    If you can get to 1pl8+50lbs with strict form call it good and be proud of yourself. not worth the risk.

        Not for OHP strength, nah. I trained them for lockout strength/speed in the jerk. For OHP the best thing for me were dips, upper back stuff, and training with low reps as close to my 1RM as I could. I never found much carry over between sets of 5 - 10 and my 1RM cause every kg is a significant increase rather than say in the bench/squat. I rarely struggled to lockout any press I did, so if it moved up to my forehead it would usually be a good lift. Problem is 5's and up don't really help training the movement from the bottom as much as you'd think, especially if people don't pause between reps. Any rep PB I set meant frick all to being able to press a new 1RM, so I mostly did doubles/triples.

                it can't hurt unless you're super heavy or something and doing twice as many dips brings your total fatigue too high. The nice thing about the ones I listed is that they exclusively target the triceps and shouldn't be limited by any other group, and you can't really cheat them with a stronger group like chest.

                yeah makes sense, maybe ill give skullcrushers another try but with a barbell. did em with dumbbells before and hated it

                Face pulls, rear delt flyes, row variations, etc. My traps were already pretty strong from lots of olympic weightlifting stuff so I am not too sure what would work best for that.

                I do skullcrushers with the EZ bar and always superset with either one-hand cable pushdowns or dumbbell kickbacks, otherwise the uneven muscle tension aggravates my elbows.

                >222
                yeah at your strength level that's pretty heavy to do twice as much. You can also swap tri/chest dips each week instead of doing half as many of both every week.

            I always found upper back/rear delts were what helped the most with lockout. Once the bar is above you your head shouldn't be behind the bar anymore, and that's when the traps/rear delts start working.

            Could be mobility. Being able to use the strength you have is important. I see a lot of people not getting their head through and letting their scaps get wonky. If you can't do a reasonable behind the neck press, form wise, you need mobility work

        Its GSLP inspired but tailored to some specific weaknesses highly untrained lifters. Itll bei a longer ready but ITS really fricking worth it.

        Basically: 50% deload. It will feel way too light in the beginning, you need that. So mit skip this, dont do more weight, you are only fricking yourself by doing that. You need the Low weight for conditioning. As crazy as it Sounds, youll be doing warmups in Rep Ranges of Up to 24. I will Mark the Warm-up Part, If It exists, down below with a W. Use the GSLP spreadaheet to calculate your Warm-up weights, or so IT wrong and do bar, 30%, 60% 90%.
        The 5+ down below means at least 5 Reps and then to failure. This is crucial.
        If you manage to so 10+ repa, you Double the amount of weight you add next Session. For squat and DL you add 5lbs or 10lbs (If you get 10+ Reps) for OHP and Bench you add 2.5 or 5lbs respectively. Do. Not. Add. More.

        AxBxAxx BxAxBxx

        A: Bench W: 24/18/12/8, 2x5 1x5+
        Rows W: 18/12/8/6, 2x5 1x5+
        Squat W: 12/8/6/6, 2x5 1x5+

        Small assecoires at 3x12. Honestly so whats fun to you.

        Rows W: 18/12/8/6, 2x5 1x5+

        Pullup 3xF
        Small assecoires at 3x12. Honestly do whats fun to you.

        I will slowly decrease Warm-up Volume as the weights increase, but so far Volume hast been a silver bullet for all my issues.
        Its a shame volume ist so frowned upon in Here. For genuinely untrained blobs Its absolutely vital to get in some muscle conditioning as Well.

    For those struggling with increasing the ohp I would highly recommend unilateral work. Dumbbell press, javelin press, kettle bell press... Anything where you can press overhead with one arm at a time. I really recommend the javelin press and with a fat grip if possible. It really helps you recruit the stabilising muscles, brings up the lagging side and in the case of the javelin hits the middle delt much harder than the ohp. Can't recommend them enough, they're a massively slept on lift and helped me breeze through ohp plateaus. Don't even need other equipment... If you have access to a barbell you can do them. Give them a shot...

              You will become an incel if you aren't already. Then in despair you start chasing the transwomen you've said earlier: "You will never be a woman." And before hearing them refuse you, you get hit by a falling piano and melt into the other putrid pile of barely sentient flesh. Then that guy who says: "Ha, gay!" comes and see you two and says: "Ha, gay!" Later a dog walks nearby and sniffs you two for a bit and makes a poop on you.

    I'm at 85lb right now and man it's getting harder to progress. Any tips?
    6'0 205lb 8 weeks lifting 23yo 160lb BP 260lb DL 225lb squat
    I really am not sure if my OHP is just normal for where I'm at right now or if I'm actually struggling all things considered.

      That's normal and keep going. Eventually after a deload or two.
      After that modify/hop on a new program to get different gains.

        That's encouraging. Yeah I plan on finishing my current stint of reddit ppl, I'm over halfway through so I don't want to hop programs, but I'm legitimately thinking of hopping on a power lifting program after. Maybe I'm naive but I honestly care more about being strong than aesthetic, I'm already married, I don't need to attract a woman.

    175lbs at ~170lbs bodyweight. It was hard and I was seeing stars afterwards. I did have a goal to get to 185 but my schedule has been really fricked lately so it's hard to focus on PRs right now.

    280lb is my current PR, tried 285 last week and while it got pretty high there wasn't a clean lock out so I don't count it.

    I havent been to the gym in over a year bc was pregnant and now have child so I’ve started using my 15lb daughter to overhead press. I lift her above me and then when I bring her back down I kiss her forehead. She likes it, its bonding, and im starting up exercising again

        i want to believe

        That's ace coz as she grows the weight will get progressively heavier. For a heavy set, press her right after dinner.

        yeah i just started doing it as an exercise last week, before it was for fun bc she enjoys playing “super baby” where i lift her and she gets all giggly and smiley. This way we both benefit

    1 pl8 3 x 5 trying to bump it to 5 x 5. Btw why does it feel like nobody does OHP, I go to my uni's gym and it feels like there's a very disproportionate amount of people who can squat heavy compared to deadlift or bench, and 1 pl8 OHP is ever rarer to see despite it being the easiest "milestone" to hit imo.
