Try things and see what works.
Not me my shoulder is FRICKED. I can tell you what not to do
what dont do
don’t
>do cable flys all the time then switch to dumbell flys one day
You’ll be able to do them but you can frick your shit up. Treat it as a different exercise even if you can do reasonable weight fine. Work up
don’t
>do meme twisty shit like Arnold press
>do shit like superset or interlaced flys+presses
just pick one exercise and do it. You can do the other after if you want. Dropsets of the same exercise if you must
don’t
>use your front delt to bench
obviously some is unavoidable but don’t use your frickin shoulders to squeeze out a last heavy rep you’re gonna fail on bench.
after thinking about it I suppose the great issue is don’t use your frickin shoulders for chest exercises at all. I’m not even talking about janky fricked up form cheating all your reps most my work was fine. I’m talking about letting your shoulders assist you a little in places they probably shouldn’t. It catches up on you heed my warning
>inb4 no shit brainlet
yeah no shit this post is for brainlets like me. If I could go back I’d frick off chasing heavy shit and do volume like a motherfricker
What's that
You can't trust anyone in this business.
Also begone satan.
I'm about to blow your mind.

Your own body.
BAM! Your body is already telling you what it needs. Tight muscle? Stretch it. Imbalance (like rolled shoulders?) stretch the tight one, and strengthen the weak one. etc,
Black person then it might be too late and you won't be doing anything that requires your arm to move for a year
you never need to lift your arm up above your head for any exercise.
Do face pulls and supinated band pull aparts, jeff cavalier is the absolute best source for this information, since he was a PT for a baseball team.
Rows will exercise your posterior delts. Lateral raises will exercise your medial delts. Any kind of push work exercises your anterior delts. OHP is made redundant by these exercises.
You don't need to worry about overhead pulls like pull ups or pull downs etc since those utilize much different muscles.
"you dont need to-"
how about i fricking want to you stupid piece of shit homosexual? morph to dust
you can either save your shoulder health or do OHP. This doesn't mean that everyone that does OHP will develop issues, it just means OHP puts unnecessary risk on your shoulder when there are safer exercises.
Lateral raises for side delt then?
yes, and look up how to do them properly. It will take much less weight than you think
I think I do them properly. Palms flat down, upper body leaned just enough forward to hold the weights in front of me.
Controlled ascent, pause at the top, high reps.
based. OHP is terrible for your shoulders.
is it really? I’ve been doing 1pl8 for sets for ages and didn’t really bother to push it up much but recently I wiggled my way up to an extra 5kg on each side of the bar. Since I did sets of 5 for that a couple of weeks in a row my shoulders have been fricked up. I know proper form. I’ve got no idea what’s gone wrong but it fricking sucks. My shoulders are all clicky now. I’ve never really heard anyone criticise OHP as bad for you. If anything it’s squats and deads that get shit on
You added 22lbs to a 135lb ohp and can't figure out why your shoulders are fricked? Idk man real mysterious
Gradually yeah I didn’t just slap it on but that’s the point where shit hit the fan. I figured if I can press it what’s the issue. I’d been pressing 1pl8 for so long it’s not crazy and can do way more reps at the lower weight
Squat university has many good warm up and mobility drills. I'm too lazy to link any specific ones but you can look up some of his recent from the past few years
I can search from the name, thanks
matt wenning unironically
Hindu push ups the hard way.
Unironically Eric Bugenhagen. He did moronic shit like doing ohp+bench every day for weeks and didn't snap his shoulders up in the process. His shoulder warm ups are kinda lenghty but they seem to work
Yeah but he's also a roid monkey
I think he was natty until his wwe sign/freak injury. That's when he really started to blow up and get that roid face look
Smith machine seated shoulder press is pretty safe, every top pro does that because it allows you to control the weight without worrying about stabilization
The fact that anyone can ohp is mindblowing to be. My shoulders have never had the stability to consider doing such a thing
>tfw just got bursitis in my left shoulder last friday
Am I confined to a gimped leg day for the next two weeks? This sucks man.
