Deadlifts are bad for your back, squats are bad for your knees, OHPing is bad for your shoulders, bicep curls are bad for your biceps, skull crushers are bad for your elbows. Exercise is bad for you!
I 100% agree! I tore my labrium and on disability in 2015 on the jobsite, i was under the care of Dr. Lombardo, head of the LA Lakers, Kerlan Jobe in Los Angeles, Dr. Lombardo warned me about the military press and other exercises.
Dude, sooo much knowledge is being transferred from this channel. Wenning strength and renaissance periodization are my go to channels for knowledge on lifting. I like Dr Wenning's view, because it's not only hypertrophy based
Im 923 years old, been lifting since i was swimming around in my dad's nuts. I do all of these exercises until failure twice a day, and have never had an injury, not even a stubbed toe, so yeah! Take that! (Hope the sarcasm is obvious enough...)
I think with the overhead press I just use them around every other block or a little less frequent, but the 2:1 posterior to anterior volume I learned from your videos for sure has helped my shoulders recover from overuse on overhead pressing
Dr. Wenning do you think there's a difference (as far as shoulder injury is concerned) between standard barbell military pressing and Neutral Grip overhead pressing with a multi-grip bar or a Log Press in strongman training? My reasoning is that the change in grip and subsequent change in humeral head position reduces shoulder impingement and is by nature a more triceps dominant from of overhead pressing. Interested to hear your thoughts and thank you!
I agree with dips and isolated bicep training. The problem with overhead press is most people perform it with a wide grip on the barbell which I feel places a lot of stress on the joint and tendons . I train it once a week only 2-3 sets but my hands are in close where I keep it in the scapular plane which is the preferred plane of motion for the shoulders . Sometimes I will throw in some DB presses instead of the barbell and I do the DB presses with a neutral grip instead of barbell grip. These I feel are pretty safe as well. I’m not looking to max out on it just to train them.
Great video dude. Many need to hear it. Dips are a friggin death trap if youre not built well for it either. I've seen a guy crack their sternum cartilage from that angle and pressure. Cant bench anymore and barely lifts. You're right about the OHP, if you do it too often, the shoulders start getting pretty crispy. Once a month or couple months is plenty for me.
The first few times I did dips, my sternum was extremely sore. I regressed them with my legs on the floor and did a lot of volume shy of failure. Now they don't bother me and I feel a great stretch. I'm not a high level lifter or a doctor, but I've never seen anyone doing things with common sense and getting hurt. This reminds me of a comment under a jefferson curl video where a guy said he can't even work because he broke his back with it, they asked him how heavy he went and he said 200 lbs. On a freaking Jefferson curl.
Very interesting Dr. Wenning, I can see the issues you pointed out about the OHP, I wonder if most of these issues also take place on the Incline benchpress given the somewhat more relaxed shoulder position
I agree with the overhead presses and dips. Dips is a lot of pressure when you are 250+ pounds in weight! You talk about the tricep getting stronger - what exercises do you recommend for strength?
yeah agree, i still do dips but really slow and pause at the end of range of motion. i cut out overhead press years ago, dont need it when i have bench and lateral raises. Matt talks a lot about bench being a tricep-dominant exercise, whereas most people think it's primarily a pec exercise. but you could also do a closer grip to make it even more tricep-focused.
Injuries in general are cause from imbalances in the body. Most people chase PR'S and never stick with proper weight long enough to stabilize the muscle. Intensity by nature should be used sparingly. Train don't Strain. I stopped weight training and did Bodyweight exercises and couldn't believe how good I felt. . If something doesn't' feel right don't do. There's so many alternative exercises to choose from...
I'm 56 and dips are a big part of my workout. I also do overhead press but not behind my head. Yes I have shoulder issues but I can still lift. I also had a bicep tear so I don't do curls as much as I had in the past.
I'm 70 years old. I've been weight traing since I was 12. I do 1 set of single arm land mine presses per week. I do 1 set of dips per week. I never do preacher or any other iso biceps work. I shoulder injury and my dog did that.
MY SHOULDERS ARE IN CONSTANT PAIN AND I HAVE ADHESIVE CAPSULITIS. MY DOC TOLD ME NO MORE DIPS. PT HAS HELPED. BUT I HAVE LONG TERM ISSUES. 68 YEARS OLD.
I do a lot of overhead pressing in steongman. What keeps my shoulders fairly healthy is i dont max TF out of overhead pressing all the time. And i do a lot of medium to light weight db shoulder workouts.
Man, came in to see if I disagreed and I couldn’t. I’m in great shape since I stopped doing them. I owe you buying one of your programs for this video. Will do right now, so if I see someone from Spain buying it, that’s me. Cheers
@WenningStrength I think it's because you have a small percentage of people like Mike O'Hearn who are genetic freaks, and people assume they can compete with that or "he does it mentally". For the majority of the population and those who can't afford PT / stem cells... I agree with you 100%.
Maybe the general public gets hurt doing overhead work because they are weak and fragile....i build electrical substations and do mp weekly and have no shoulder pain and lifting tools over my head is a more submaximal event for me compared to others because my strength ceiling has been rais3d by training the mp movement in the gym...if the general public has injuries related to work overhead I think that's a terrible indicator of the mp therefore being bad for you. If the general population and associated injuries is the litmus test then I just don't think that's a logical way to assess just about any injury because it's a fragile sick population that's already injury prone
Right, I used to watch a physio's channel and he got me paranoid about everything. He warned against deadlifting, overhead pressing, God forbid you attempted a goodmorning, etc. I don't understand how a pain free exercise progressed with patience can silently deteriorate your body and one day you wake up all broken. I'm not an expert of course, it's just a thought off the top of my head.
@@ddwfw I do wonder how people who say 'xyz exercise destroyed my abc' got to that situation. I've only ever gotten bad injuries training with way too much fatigue and high intensity when I was younger and I've always been able to rehab the area to become stronger and more resilient than before.
@@Fitnessheretic That's my experience as well, I think people who are seriously injured just did way too much without recovering. David Goggins destroyed his knees with jogging, Ronnie Coleman did conventional exercises and he's in a wheelchair. Did they do activities that are instrinsically dangerous or did they just go crazy on them without listening to their bodies? I've been doing MMA since I was a kid, all my injuries came from my teen years of fighting like an ape, now I wrestle and all that other stuff every week and I have zero issues because I use my brain.
I agree on those first two exercises. Overhead press and dips. But the biceps curl also. That's interesting. I had that feeling also that the curl is related to the shoulder issue. What about light dumbbell curls, just for the pump so to speak. Also what about the dumbbell flye? Thoughts , I'm eager to hear your view on this.. 👍
Funny, I watched a Mike O'Hearn short vid yesterday saying how behind the neck presses keep the shoulder healthy. I'm not sure what the truth is tbh. I did loads of behind the neck pressing in my youth, and my shoulders are fucked now, but I put that mostly down to not being able to build my back strength and development at the same rate as my chest development, and thus pulling my shoulders forward out of alignment. If I try any overhead pressing now, my shoulders are screaming!
Dr. Wenning what is your opinion on upright rows? They used to be a popular exercise but I hear a lot of experts including Dorian Yates say they cause shoulder impingement and should be avoided. Thank you for all your content.
Dr Wenning advises to avoid OHP (for the most part), but Mike O'Hearn is a big advocate of Behind The Neck OHP. Both men get good results and aren't in their 20s anymore. I'm not sure how to reconcile these two viewpoints.
I do all of these exercises but I’ve been doing them since I started so my body is mobile enough to handle them AND I’m a very tricep dominant presser. I never feel my shoulders or pecs Ever working during any pressing movements. Always triceps and upper back What wrecks my shoulders is upright rows. I’ll never do them
He is definetely talking about the general public, i can also do deep dips with cero shoulder pain but many of my friends do have shoulder pain doing it.
Ive found that single dumbell overhead press is best because it allows your whole body to move freely instead of being locked in under a barbell. I switch up because after a few heavy sets of overheard barbell press i would work a kink into my upper back/neck. Shit last for days and cant reallu turn my neck
Hello!! If you take chest presses off is it good for shoulder press development? I dont care doing bench but I want my ohp better. I do narrow grip bench for triceps but I use light weights. Thank you!!
I'm triceps dominant but I limit the amount of dips I do because of the pressure on the shoulders. Decline bench is fine because of the bracing. Behind the neck movements I'm against for that grinding. Even back squats I limit now unless I can use a setup with a wide grip, something most racks can't accommodate safely.
Doing the benchpress with dumbbells is but even then, incline dumbbell press at a 45 degree angle is better than doing it flat because the 45 degree angle maximizes pectoral stimulation similar to how a 45 degree angle maximizes projectile motion distance.
Matt can you can clarify that first exercise. We should avoid the behind-the-neck military OHP (leftover exercise from the 90s, i dont do them or see anyone doing them anymore) or are you suggesting we should eliminate ALL OHP from our programming? I still do seated dumbbell OHP as part of my Push day. Always thought some form of vertical push was necessary but open to deleting this, never felt great anyway.
I like Dr Wenning's content & agree with most of it except for the Military/Overhead Press. The way the military press was shown in the video from Arnold & the other bodybuilder at the beginning were done from behind the neck which isn't an overhead or military press which is done from the front, it's a behind the neck press which forces the shoulder joint into internal rotation causing said grinding very similar to a benchpress. When done properly from the front, the overhead press where you stand upright not hunching over & shrug at the top when you lockout puts the shoulder joint into external rotation thus making shoulder impingement & damage physically impossible. Plus the other benefits of the overhead press compared to the benchpress are far greater that for anyone who isn't a powerlifter (even powerlifters should do it also), they should do overhead pressing instead because it builds the core muscles more since you have to stay upright to do it correctly, builds the entire shoulder girdle better than the benchpress which mainly works the front delts, builds the triceps more since you have to lift it through a longer range of motion which Matt always says tricep strength is essential for the benchpress while it also builds the upper pecs simultaneously all while using a lighter weight. Also unlike the benchpress, there's no risk of getting pinned under the weight without being able to get out when doing overhead pressing, simply putting the bar back into the rack from shoulder height or dropping it in front of you in the worst case scenario is all you need to do to safely get out without getting hurt. The final point is also the strength developed, a man who only trains overhead press for his barbell press plus overhead variations & can lift 400 lbs on it with proper form will easily be able to benchpress 400 lbs if he trains it for 3 weeks if not more but a man who only trains the benchpress & can lift 400 lbs on it with proper form most likely won't be able to overhead press 300 lbs or even 250 lbs after 3 weeks of training overhead which even Matt said himself that he was benchpressing 600 but was doing 400 on the overhead press which may have even been behind the neck which is far from a bad number to do, it's world class, but highlights the massively skewed ratio of strength gained. The front squat when done with a full grip compared to a normal squat done with the bar on the back is the exact same way as overhead press compared to the benchpress.
I was always afraid of military presses so i never done them maybe a handful of times.. great benchers would say "look how much better your bench would be but id do more movements as JM presses & simple close grip instead..i just knew doing military presses id strain something..
I do all 3 of them, but my triceps are strong as shit..and so is my bench...no shoulder problems and I'm 50..my thing is I can do it with our any problem, I'm going to keep doing it..If I stop now I may lose it

If you really have no shoulder problems, then you are very lucky. Benching a lot is tough on the shoulders.
If overhead pressing is bad for the shoulders, what about overhead pulling?

Does anyone know y bodybuilders done shoulder presses in the late 40s and 50s? it wasn't to build shoulders thats for sure
No pressing at all ever doesn't belong in a bodybuilders routine no dips no flyes no incline at all or flat press with barbell
So, in other words, train like John Haack and we should be good. You'll be getting a message from Mike O'hearn momentarily. 😂
