I'm stalling on my ohp at 100lb in SL5x5. I already deloaded, and I don't have access to microplates. What should I do? Dumbbell ohp?
buy some microplates, or make some, or use 1kg ankle/wrist weights, you mother fucker
Eat more/invest in microplates/db ohp
If you stall at 5x5, go down to 3x5 and do that until you stall. So if you're stalling at 5x5@100lbs, do 3x5@100lbs and keep going up until you stall at 3x5. So lets say you get to 3x5@125lbs and stall, go back down to 100lbs and you should be able to do that for 5x5.

Do shoulder presses until 100+ is easy
Thanks guys

strengthen your core (abs), novice routines dont emphasize them enough to progress. core tightness is key to pushing higher OHP weights
do hanging leg raises & planks

If you have access to an internet connection (you do), then you have access to Amazon, then you have access to micro plates.
Also, consider switching to 3x5. It's better for building strength than 5x5 anyway.

>Get some washers with 2" holes at your nearest hardware store or online.
>If you're too cheap to even do that, deload to 80% of your last 5x5 weight and do 4x8.
OHP is a meme exercise and has no measurable benefits whatsoever. Work on your kegels first, then get back to us faggot.
