    what an unfortunate face.

    contrary to /shit/'s advice i have had better growth and made better progress doing THE PRESS seated in the smith machine. my shoulders are yuge now and i'm consistently putting the weight up. whereas every single dumbbell exercise i do is fricking pointless, just marking time.

    it's almost as if you need to lift big weights to get big.

    by all means do your shitty dumbbell meme lifts, but do them AFTER you do heavy work not instead of heavy work.

          natty routine on gear is no problem, it's the other way around that's the issue. one exception is that high frequency can be a problem for roiders because muscle growth can outpace tendon growth and tendons need

          the fundamentals of exercise are exactly the same when you're frauding, you just get more out of it.

      Idc if someone frauds. But it's not the fricking exercise variation that blows up your shoulders. It's the androgen receptors in your fricking shoulders responding to juice. Same with traps.
      Next time you think about making claims about which variations are good or bad, have a nice day instead.

          lift weights to get bigger, yes. but frequency, volume, exercise selection, response, recovery, tendon demands, etc, are all different.

            ehh not so much in my experience. you can do more than you otherwise could but that doesn't necessarily change what you're doing, just how much of it you do. like i basically kept my natty program but just added in more exercises in the end. i've experimented but i always just come back to 3*10 with a top set and then 2 sets at a lower weight. if i want more work i just add more exercises.

            i probably could have just added more dropsets to the exercises i was already doing but i like the variety.

            muscles that are closer to the brain and spine have more androgenic receptors. That's the reason why all girls on roids have man's face with overly developed jaw muscles, despite not training them at all, just eating. Same with your shoulders. They will return back to normal, or even to a smaller size when you get off the juice.

                I'm natty and I get tendon pain from training my arms frequently, even doing lat pulldowns 3x a week with any degree of intensity makes my forearm and bicep tendons hurt.

              • 2 years ago
                Anonymous

                lat pulldowns, rows, and pullups can stress the biceps tendon a lot because you can put it under significant load while it's maximally stretched. if you can prevent that (less range of motion, keeping a slight bend in your arms, etc), your pain should go away.

                could I just do pulldowns more infrequently as well?

              • 2 years ago
                Anonymous

                probably, yes. also switching exercise each session can help as well. e.g. dumbbell rows one day, lat pulldowns another, etc. treating your hands "as hooks" and pulling from the elbows (less biceps engagement) can also help.

          It's hilarious to me when roidtards willingly damage their internal organs without knowing EXACTLY what they're getting into and how to maximize gains with the window of time they have before their liver/kidneys/ect. are shot.

          and yes, people make gains without lifting while on steroids. Just like livestock do, you fricking moron.

      I watched a guy the other day just using 50s. He didn't seem to understand how to push the weight to his shoulders using his knees and kept contorting his arm around trying to curl them up with a look of pure anguish on his face. I was gonna say something but then I figured if you're too dumb to figure out how to lift your knees, you're not going to follow any advice.

    Both are important. Barbell OHP allows you to work the main muscle bodies/fibers that go into The Press, allowing for faster progress. Dumbbell distributes the work more evenly throughout the delts and other stabilizers, making your muscles more well-rounded and your movements safer.

    Better for hypertrophy and isolating your upper shoulder/delts.

    Worse for explosive power and functional strength.

        Spotted the DYEL. KBs aren't the end all be all of fitness tools, but there are things they mog in and overhead pressing is one of them.
        Its a more natural movement than the DB press, it builds total shoulder girdle strength because of all the upper back involvement in maintaining the rack position and it can be done bottoms up as an excellent rehab exercise for people recovering from shoulder injuries.
