Why the fuck are you not doing behind the neck military press /fit/?
>>42210348
because push press
because impingement
>>42210348
Because Jeff Cavaliere from AthleanX.com said not to
I like my rotator cuffs, I'd like to keep them
Because you can get the same results without fucking your shoulders up by pressing it infront of you
>>42210348
because i like my ligaments
>>42210348
>tfw you're the only person in your gym who does OHP without going behind the neck
For the first three month I legitimately thought I was fucking it up.
>>42210348
Because I do snatch press, push press, strict press, and BTN jerk instead. I just don't need BTN military press.

Jeff says a lot of things that are rooted more in fearmongering than fact
>>42210520
Then do some rotator cuff exercises, you nerd
>>42210528
similar results, but not the same. BTN has higher lateral and rear delt involvement
>>42210556
must be either some normie fitness youtuber or personal trainers preaching it. I also see some dyels doing it with a split stance, which I have never seen recommended anywhere online

But I'm not a mongoloid and I do presses for them sweet front delt gains. If I wanted to get gains in the other two heads, I would train them separately.
It's 2009+8, isolation work is the way to go

Arnie used to favour it over OHP. Whats the difference in muscle activation?
I don't think I've ever seen an actual athlete do this shitty exercise. It's always 18yo dyels and roided up gymrats
I did these for a while. Huge gains. Loved it. Middle and front delts got huge in a way that traditional press didn't make them
>>42210348
if I did every meme exercise some geek on /fit/ told me to do, i'd be in the gym 6 hours a day
if you already do some form of pressing with enough volume (be it horizontal, inclined, or overhead) and side and rear delt work, there is little this exercise offers you beyond looking like a nerd and a possible ticket to snap city if your shoulder geometry makes you unsuited for it

Are you not? You're not gonna make it
