After reading Dan John’s article I was thinking this morning. About doing push press instead of Bench for 6 weeks. That way getting shoulders twice a week. I have history of shoulder tears and bench is really not my friend. Any one have thoughts. Doogie?
Do you mean to do push press one day and military another? Why doesn’t military hurt your shoulders?
No I was thinking about doing the Savickas Presses on Monday like I have been. Then on Thursday doing push press instead of bench. I dont know why overhead pressing does not hurt my shoulders, but if I get to aggressive with bench they will start killing me.

Regular bench was chewing up my left shoulder. It got to the point I couldn’t press at all. So I switched to close grip bench. After a few months my shoulder is 99% better.
I agree with ecogenx that close grip bench would be a good option for awhile. Also, make sure you are doing heavy rows or facepulls or something else to hit the rest of your shoulders, also. That’s the extent of my advice.
I feel good doing the floor presses. But that doesnt really get my chest. Doing the blast straps and dips get my chest and dont hurt the shoulder. Probably all a psych thing. I just cannot put on heavy weight on the bench and feel safe in the garage. Also just dont have the drive to do heavy bench any more. Doogie we have talked about that.

How is the shoulder? Bench is overrated. Even if you dropped it completely there would be no real loss. I see you’re a fellow sumo deadlifter. I knew you were smart.

I have really not done a heavy bench in at least 6 weeks. So the shoulders have felt great. I want to develop my deltoids more also was one of the reasons I was considering the workout change.
Those are so good looking deadlifts…

Thanks I love Dead, simple and most effective lift in my opinion.
Okay just could not get out of bed today, fucking playing RDR last night. Not to late but I was waiting for Maya to get home from work. Will workout when I get off work, since she is off today no RDR.
