I'm sorry, Jow Forums, but how the hell do you guys do it? I've been doing OHP 2x a week for the past couple of months and I've been stagnating at 50kg 3x5 for about three weeks now. Tried doing 52,5kg yesterday and 2x5 and choked on the last rep of the 3rd set.
Am I not doing enough upper delt work?

What risk?

How are you shaking so much with just 200? What's your squat?

post yours twiggy

Sets of 10+ reps and low weight high volume behind the necc presses

Aren't those supposed to have higher risk of fucking your shoulders up rather than regular in-front-of-your-face press? Appreciate the info.

>that arch

That’s really bad, you’re either not resting or doing it wrong. I was doing 50kg 5x5 within a month of SL with no accessories and my delts are garbage.

210 for a sloppy 2 is my PR, but that was 1 year and 45 lbs ago.

Between cutting and two very long vacations abroad I'm lucky to hit 185 for a set of 3 these days.

5 x 5 65lb

Eat properly, specially before workout. Work on your core, glutes and quads and make sure to really compress them during the OHP.
If all else fails start doing seated OHP

here's one to piss off the form fags

I can max over 200 but not sure how much over

Now try again without using your legs

I mean you ain't really pissing anyone off, just making people pity your shit form

post your 12 rep 1 pl8 strict video

It really is. The funny thing is, they have grown in size, but I don't actually progress in strength. Been thinking of switching OHP for some other delt exercise.

Apparently ohp does not build shoulders.

>you're doing it wrong
>n-no u post a video of you doing it right
Based unironic retard

Okay, thanks for the tip. I actually thought you're supposed to try and isolate your delts to really make it work. I never clenched my butt/legs.

>being this mad because you cant ohp 1 plate for 1 rep yet

I always thought a big OHP meant big delts and traps. But it seems like I am wrong.

>keeps projecting and moving goalposts in hopes people will stop talking about his shit form

65kg x 5, going up very slowly recently

You can't isolate the delts if your core is weak and you have to arch your back or move your legs to keep balance and raise the weight. Once you clench them you will note the difference and your delts will still get that activation. Best of luck

good luck in hitting that 1pl8 goal, one day you'll be able to throw 1pl8 around like the big boys

>doubling down on being retarded
Does it hurt this much that people point out you got shit form? It's just embarrassing that the best thing you can come up with is "I-I-I got shit form b-but you probably can't 1pl8...please for the love of God tell me you can't 1pl8"

Excellent, thanks a lot!

can you take your sperging out somewhere else? thank you

literally try harder

>no u

OHP never meant you had big delts, especially not traps lmao wtf, hitting good weight for GOOD reps is what adds the mass

>lifts like an actual autist
>calling others spergs
?

There are people right now browsing Jow Forums who still think strength = size.

Well it doesn't.

Currently on 51kg for six
Doing 2*5, 1x5+

Going up a kilo each session, feel I should hit 60 quite smoothly, maybe one deload on the way

a proper strict ohp begins with core and glutes tightening to give a thrust and stabilization.
youtube.com/watch?v=tMAiNQJ6FPc

correct, strength isn't directly proportional to size... but it is strongly correlated.

delt size and ohp strength do correlate in a significant enough way to be able to say that chasing a heavy 5x5 ohp will result in bigger delts. they are not as unrelated as you're suggesting.

>Lost 1kg bodyweight
>OHP drops by 10 kg

i dont go for pr's so i dont actually know my 1rm. i just go for sets of 10 so i'll do 3 sets of 10 of half a pl8

>repping so fast it looks like he's not moving at all

Was worried I was gonna see some leg action. Good work user!
We're all gonna make it, never give up.

Why are 1RMs on OHP so fucking hard. With other lifts, my actual OHP is fairly close to the scores calculated from 5RMs. But for OHP, I swear to god, just go 10-15 lbs over your 5RM and you won't be able to get a single goddamn rep past eye level.

Currently at 185x5, 185 lbs bodyweight, 5'9". Fuck 1RMs

eat more food user, also imagine theres a girl watching, that really pushes me to not fail any of my reps also it helps me squeeze my ass harder idk why

175x1 over here boys at 185 bodyweight, pls lord gimme 10 more pounds

whenever im about to fail i use my legs, is this a bad habit i should get rid of? my logic says that its better to do half a rep in terms of fully using your shoulders instead of failing. or should i just lower the weight in my last set?

105kg
Just started tho after half year no ohp

Dunno, you still hit the muscle, even if form fails. Don't think it makes such a big difference if you get some cheap reps in hombre.

Get the rep in but still deload

Highest ive ever done is 77.5kg for 5 or some shit

Probably around 90kg

thanks guys, todays OHP is dedicated to you

The girls are always watching, if you know what I'm saying, but thanks for the advice. I'm trying to eat more.

Your just weak buddy, lift with some consistency for a couple years, never miss a session, that's what really counts

Well, I've been lifting seriously since October, and all my lifts have been progressing real good, except for the OHP. I can comfortably bench 95kg, for reference. Maybe I should incorporate more shoulder exercises into my routine.

Yes, don't do them

>5'10, 220
>bench 360
>ohp 230
i want to get 2.5/4, but its gonna be a long road...

Dem pancakes

>finally reach 1pl8 ohp
>Shoulders get really fucked up in bad fall
>Haven't pressed in months and they still hurt from time to time
So tiresome, all of it

that's great OP! keep working hard

op here, you were saying?

height/weight?

178cm/175lbs

What arch?

my ohp is 250 pounds

thicc

depends on if you're trying to train the movement or just the muscle

455 high bar

>just 200
Post OHP

40kg. You lads go wide grip? I'm worried I may fall over

OHP are useless if you dont power clean the weight before

"No"

SNAP CITY BITCH, SNAP SNAP CITY BITCH. TEEN TEEN TEEN TWENTIES AND THEM FIFTIES BITCH

Your spine is about to snap at any second. All for a meme ego lift that gives you those shitty shoulders

Dumbbell press seated is so superior in every way it's comical

ohp
>trash
fuck me lads.

cant see the weights you stupid faggot

rly makes u think.

whats the purpose of pressing/pushing X weight if you cant clean it ?

These two don't follow. You're begging the question.

Your hand position won't be the same if you were to clean it, you get a better set up for OHP by unracking

this is how i know you never clean and jerked a day on your life

lmao that's retarded

>everyone on Jow Forums lifts bigass numbers yet still looks like they've never set foot in a gym in their lives
god why do I even fucking bother staying natty at this point

Attached: 1547734955438.gif (200x200, 1.79M)

I power clean, I don't jerk.
Why would I do Oly lifts when I don't need/want to?

You can OHP more with a good unrack then you would from a racked clean just because of the wrist position alone. (obviously you can jerk more than you OHP but that's not the topic)

Flex abs and glutes

that grind was admirable

>t.cleanlet

if you cant clean it you cant press it deal with it

>You lads go wide grip?
Grip is relatively narrow, your forearms should be perpendicular to the bar for most advantageous force transmission.
Elbows are also in front of the bar slightly.
Rippletits has some good bideos

Also this, get tight
