For some variation, work on rotator cuff flexibility and see if behind the neck presses feel ok. There's a lot of fear-mongering out there among trainers who insist that behind the neck OHP are inherently dangerous, but said trainers tend to have little to no background in anatomy and do not believe that anatomical differentiation is a real thing.

Also, and I know a lot of big boys frown at this suggestion, playing basketball is actually a really nice way to add some extra emphasis to the shoulders. I've seen it yield benefits as an off-day supplement.

Any advice on how to get started on rotator cuff flexibility? Currently I'm only doing band pullaparts/dislocates for shoulder stretching. I definitely want to get started on btn pressing but I've never tried cos I'm a wuss.

Basketball sounds great but currently slaving away at my internship from 830-6 for $2.7 an hour lmao

Just continue doing band work and then start doing a low pyramid flexibility routine for a few weeks as you train the shoulder to expect the unusual movement. That looks like 12x45lbs (just the bar), 10x55, 8x65, 6x75, 6x85, that sort of thing. Because it's the shoulder, there'll likely be a sweet spot around 55-75 pounds where the weight is low enough that you don't impinge anything as a matter of course while also still high enough to allow full ROM and activation throughout. Once you find that spot, always start there when beginning your shoulder workouts and flexibility should continue to improve.

front delts just do front/side raises with a dumbell, they are easy as fuck to slot in somewhere and hit a lot (switch your angle up so you're not just lifting directly in front of you, a bit to the side is actually harder to do (for me))

My PT has me doing these (for hips too) and they're great. Do a couple sets of 10 every day and really push yourself on em.

Awesome, guys thanks for the help. Really hoping that bringing my shoulder strength up is going to finally tip my bench over to the 3plate/140kg category. Been stuck at 125-130 for ages lol, and it makes a lot of sense since my OHP max is only at like 75kg on a good day.

Feel like a decent Deadlift PR might be coming in soon, can't wait for my straps to come in since I lost them.

Front raises are not nearly as effective as just doing more bench/incline/overhead pressing. Lateral raises don't hit the front of the shoulder, they hit the side of it. Very few people out there actually need more direct front delt work, unless the only chest workouts you do are flyes and pushups.

Did some BTN Presses yesterday after my main OHP work as suggested, wow they feel great lol might forgo OHP for this even (maybe). Went up to 40kg for a couple of sets of 12. Thoughts on doing Klokov Presses though? Going max grip seems crazy

Does it really matter? In the end you are just hitting the same muscle groups from a slightly different angle. Do what is more fun, I would not overthink it. Personally, I vary my BTN grip width all the time.

Beast. I've been injury-ridden and haven't been able to consistently work on my chin-ups. Most I've done recently was 1 rep @ 90 lbs

How much do you weigh?

Today's training:
bw: 107,3kg
Squat: 157,5kg: 5-5-5-5-5 (Video of the 2nd set)
Bench Press: 110x4f, 107,5x,107,5x5, 110x5, 110x4f
Chin Ups: +10kg: 4-4-4
Deadlift 60kg: 3-3-3-3 (muscle memory for the correct starting position)
15 Face Pulls.

Still squatting without a belt, I should be able to push those 5s a bit higher
110x5 is a PR for reps on the bench. To accomplish that in the 4th heavy set is kinda weird - it shows I have good strength endurance and that form/technique is very important (and still inconsistent for me). Trying for 110x5x5 next week.
The weight loss is coming along slow and steady. 3kg more until end of April and I won't even need to cut weight to get into the -105kg competition.
