When raising the arm, the humeral head drives into the acromion to cause impingement. Bone and ligaments then add to this compression. This smashes the rotator cuff, made of small muscles and tendons, that fix the shoulder in place.

Just because you can place your hand overhead fails to show that you should do so with a weight. Many muscles evolved just to move fast or hold positions. Performing otherwise will go against what your body expects.

Tell me more broscience pls

>>34929660
scientific sources on this?

>>34929660
oh so that's why everyone who does ohp has smashed rotator cuffs and sedentary people have the healthiest shoulders
>>
>>34929660
That's when you don't know how to ohp and your arms are behind your shoulders

At full extension it doesn't really matter, your clavicle, spine, scapula etc give plenty of room. That's why prehab movements like shoulder dislocations are good rather than bad.

Getting into the movement is where you might have a problem. Fatigue, too heavy weight on the concentric phase, poor mobility of any of the joints and ofc inflammation can all cause impingement on the way up by causing the joints to not move enough quickly enough

Your god rippletits has spoken.

Have not had a single shoulder issue and have been doing OHP for 4 years. Just make sure your doing your shoulder dislocations, face-pulls and such and you will be fine

Wrong. Go learn anatomy and biomechanics.
Your body isn't retarded. It's well equiped to raise stuff over your head.
