Scooby claims to care about exercise safety but teaches all his fans to fuck up their shoulders.

Someone should tell his that you're not supposed to press above your head in that plane (or even worse, behind your head) That'll eventually fuck up your shoulder.

He's a fag got that uses steroids to make up for his incredibly bad form. He's just like everyone else on /fit/. Who cares if people ruin their bodies due to poor instruction, less people in the gym.

He is in frontal plane. How else is hr supposed to shoulder press?

You have to have an angle between your body and arms of at least 30 degree, he has almost 0.

Arnold was also doing stupid stuff like dumbbell flys. That doesn't mean that you're also gonna get away with it without major injury.
>>
>>34913053
If you lift above your head like that, your arms and the dumbbells should be more ahead of you and not in the plain of your body.

Look up why behind-the-neck press is bad, this is almost as bad for the same reason.

plane was actually correct

>>34912971
he is not in the frontal plane, look at his elbows. they are stuck out to the side, instead of in front of and in line with his shoulders.

that is literally how you impinge your shoulders 101

This thread is full of dumb.

Unless you have bad shoulder flexibility DB pressing like that is fine and is a good way to target the lateral deltoid. Behind the neck presses and pulldowns require quite a bit more flexibility to be safe, but if you can do them and keep your upper back tight and shoulder blades retracted it's not a bad movement.

I should also note that there are some pulldown machines (which rock) that let you bring the handles down beside the head (as they're lever/plate loaded machines), never heard of anybody getting injured using those.

tl;dr behind the neck and frontal plane moves can fuck your shoulders up, but can also be totally safe if you have adequate flexibility

You also have to do babby as shit weight with them.

Klokov does some behind the neck presses for warm up and prehab, and I find them useful and nice personally so I don't see what the fuss is about really.

>>
>>34913761
I've been doing quite a bit of btn pressing (push, strict, snatch grips) for the past year since I started wl and have had no issues with it. Pretty much everyone at my gym does and I don't think I've ever seen a shoulder injury yet. Some guys are reasonably strong too.

I don't think it's as dangerous and everyone says.

>>34913761
It's really not an issue if your shoulder mobility is fine.

These are very delicate things inside your shoulders, mobility won't help enough. But you'll only realize there's a problem when it's too late.

Retract the scapula enough and lean back slightly lowers the risk significantly, still theres literally no benefit gained from doing behind the neck pressing that you cant gain from other, safer excercises.

Jeff Cavaliere is a charlatan and a shill with an exaggerated and overhyped resume to sell the gullible crap.

I even know what's in that video without having to watch it again. He has to stick the skeletal model in an incredibly unnatural position with a close up to hide how ridiculous the movement looks as he makes up a problem for himself to fix.

The small grain of truth in that is yes certain movements may contribute to inflammation and shoulder impingement over time, but the fact is it's really quite difficult to impinge your shoulder outside of a couple of specific movements, and when you do it or anything that contributes to it you can probably feel it.

Shoulder prehab is king and most of the time it's people that do no prehab whatsoever that end up having problems they were bound to have anyway blaming random exercises. Look up mobility drills like shoulder dislocations and windmills and do them regularly. Look up even basic prehab exercises and also do them regularly. Isometrics should be a staple for prehab here too

No, this is not fucking rocket science.

See that vertical blade-like shit called Acromion? You're slowly grinding down your Bursa and tendons and possibly muscles if you do press like this.

That is one kind. I do mine standing up and going all the way up and down rather than levelling off at the shoulder. That doesn't look like a bad thing to do to me tho, what he's doing looks like it's doing a few good things at once.

>>34914944
Rotator cuff mobility every single day. Every single day. Let me stress that you should be doing rotator cuff mobility work every single day. If there is one piece of advice for shoulder prehab, I'd say do rotator cuff mobility every single day. God speed, anon.

Interesting. But that's a different exercise, he's not doing press behind the neck.

There's clearly and asymmetry here, and forward operation of the arms is much less problematic.

Go ahead and explain how Scooby presses are a different movement.
>>
>>34915080
That PDF was overcomplicated. That video has everything you need to do on it. Do the stretches when you wake up while you get ready for the day, and do the strengthening before any workout to make sure its ready to go. You don't ever want to fatigue the rotator cuffs. Just do it with a really weak band or a 5 pound plate until you feel each of the four activated.
I rekt my right shoulder a month into lifting (could barely bench the bar with really shitty form) and doing this shit religiously has kept me from having any shoulder pain whatsoever two years later.
>>
>>34915173
The reason why you don't get shoulder impingement is the same between btn, dumbbell pressing like scooby in the OP (which is also covered when they talk about impingment) and in the barbell press. This is dependant on your mobility though. If you cannot do a natural shrug movement while pressing in any of these planes yes you potentially have a problem, but with good mobility you'll be fine.

Look, here's an actual x-ray illustrating the point why lateral lifting is problematic (imagine a ton of ligaments attached to the arm bone) Forward motions you can do all day, that's how OHP starts. I don't believe OHP is totally harmless, but that little pressure in the end of the lift is not the same as consistent grinding.

BTW, Scooby tells his minions to keep their shoulders down and back (packed) at all times. So no shrugging at any point.

And Rippetoe, with all due respect, has a Bachelor of Science in Petroleum Geology.

>>
>>34915357
Your clavicle still raises up even with scapulae retracted. You can even see it in the OP.

And with all due respect Cavaliere was one of many PTs for three seasons with a baseball team. Albeit a decent baseball team, still not weightlifters or whatever. That is the height of his career best part of a decade ago. Whether you feel that beats Rippetoe's qualification to disseminate fact is immaterial since you're just an idiot if you disagree with me at this point.
>>
>>34915414
I don't know what your argument really is. If you're saying lateral press is better after this then you're the idiot.

>>
>>34915447
Woah 3 years of experience, somebody call call Guinness we have a fucking world record apparently. And yes it's in an unrelated field but let's just fudge that because baseball is p much competitive weightlifting.

Even if we were to agree that that's an amazing amount of experience and a masters in physical therapy from where ever is as prestigious as a decent MSc and not a joke, that doesn't mean anything. People are not right or wrong based purely on qualifications, you can still get bad advice and poor understanding and explanations from well qualified people.

And don't get me wrong, if we were talking about baseball I'd probs concede the point, but we're not.
>>
>>34915532
A Bachelor of Science in Petroleum Geology "educating" people about fitness because he lifted once and bought a gym is the fucking joke here.

It doesn't apply to anything unless your clavicle is immobile. For most normal people this means that bench press and chest flyes potentially have problems, but any pressing to overhead doesn't.

If it feels uncomfortable obviously don't do it. And too heavy weight can be a bitch on your rotator cuff in general at certain angles.
>>
>>34915603
>he lifted once and bought a gym is the fucking joke here.
Rippetoe is now an old man and has lifted most of his life on a regular basis.

And if you think for some reason that the degree you leave university with must be the job you then have forever you are in for a rude awakening when you enter the workplace or take up a physical hobby.

I can find tonnes of articles on the evils of creatine, squatting atg, and not using the smith machine too, would not in a million years follow stupid advice like that either tho.

>>34913950
That does happen sometimes. Stuff like that is labelled ideopathic, he probably whacked it on something without realising a little too hard at a funny angle. That kind of thing just takes time to settle down again, plus you want some physical therapy to keep mobility and strength in the joint.

you can believe in broscience and denigrate expertise and experience all you want, but an Msci PT degree means that he was tough the newest science not so long ago, working for a top baseball team means that he solidified all that knowledge your short little old dude who owns a gym in Texas never had, working with top athletes. and on top of that, he spent another decade working with athletes from all kinds of sports. and he clearly practices what he preaches, even tho let's be honest he has shit genetics.

these things matter when we're talking about an exercise you're gonna do ones (or twice) a week for the rest of your life with dozens of repetitions.

AND, Rippetoe wasn't talking about the same movement. pressing a bar does provide you that little angle people with relevant education say you need.
>>
>>34918627
>not so long ago
Did he get it before the baseball thing? That would be over a decade ago. A masters in physical therapy is not always a bad degree but it's never going to impress me academically.

Rippetoe also shows pressing both in front with a barbell and out to the side as with dumbbells in the video. It also does apply to btn pressing. I know this from my own knowledge on the subject, but Rippetoe explains pressing mechanics so well.

The baseball guy on the other hand is making out like the scapula is attached to the rib cage, doesn't move except to whack the humoral head into the also apparently unmoving clavicle. He can only do this with a medical model and even then by forcing it into very odd positions. Guy's a snake oil salesman.

Now okay maybe you cannot see this. Fine don't take my advice. Ultimately you have to do what you think is right.

I suppose dumbbell press would be easier in that lateral plane, since the position of your wrists isn't fixed?

Meaning when you lower the bar they go wider and when you push up they narrow to shoulder width?
>>
>>34919028
Uh huh. I'm not going to play grab ass with a fat ass m8. My tip would he to stop "trolling" /fit/ and actually do something with your life.
>>
>>34919101
Pullovers are meant to be the worst in the lifting type exercises. Any kind of high rep dynamic action like throwing or swinging or swimming is number one for all shoulder injuries including impingment. That's thought to be down to fatigue in the rotator cuff muscles, they eventually stop moving as the should.

Then for lifts it p much goes pullovers > shitty bench > shitty flyes then probs > flyes and then bench. It can somewhat depend on your own physiological quirks too like bone spurs and similar.

>>34913135
>Look up why behind-the-neck press is bad
tons of olympic weightlifters do that and the're fine

as long as you go light theres no problem
>>
>>34913949
Damn straight, senpai.
>>
>>34912934
No, traps are in charge of stabilizing both the head and the shoulders on that plane. If you squeeze them and tighten your rear deltoids to stabilize the weight, your lateral and frontal deltoids will carry/press the weight while the lats/rear deltoids stabilize the shoulder/neck frame.

OP, sorry, but you're simply echoing "knowledge" about forms without having any knowledge about muscle function, planes and relationships yourself.
>>
>>34919246

Fucking manlet.

its funny how someone posted a rippetoe video where he says shrugging will prevent impingement. its not the same fucking movement as the normal ohp you retard. in the book he basically says btn presses rek ur shit up.

the acromion will move up with shrugging, yes, but adducting the shoulder and externally rotating it much more than what you do in an ohp will still smash your tendons if your structure isn't optimal.

>>34919280
thats like saying basketball makes people tall.

people who have a bad type of an acromion or otherwise genetically poor shoulders won't be weightlifters. and they will get rekt by btn presses
>>
>>34919372
>Scooby press
It's dumbbell ohp.

So are you this guy or thinking at least this is right?
>>34915357
>>
>>34919509
this is more like a dumbbell ohp: >>34913163

learn how to do a ohp of any kind cause you're confused: >>34914165
>>
>>34919542
>this is more like a dumbbell ohp: >>34913163 #
The classic dumbbell ohp is performed with arms externally rotated and doesn't have the elbows going lower than shoulders. That is trying to mimic a barbell ohp with dumbbells, not taking advantage of variable arm distance.

>>34919501
Rippetoe has said several times they can be performed with low weight. He doesn't like them tho.

Here is Lee Priest (I think it is anyway), a well known Scooby student doing the Scooby press and definitely not a dumbbell overhead press as you might see on a York poster.
>>
>>34919608
he doesnt like them cause they will fuck you up

nothing is dangerous with light weights ofc
>>
>>34919608
>not taking advantage of variable arm distance.
of course it takes advantage of that while you lift your arms up, there's a lot more freedom than with a bar

but it doesn't mimic the idiotic wide grip of behind the neck press like in the "Scooby dumbbell press"
>>
>>34919672
But why is Lee Priest doing Scooby press? Why does York recommend it for shoulders since forever?
>>
>>34919625
Arnold and others were doing "pour the water" side raises and other insanity, so what?

of course some bad practices you can tolerate while shooting up a bucked of roids every week, which speeds up your recovery dramatically (but kills your balls in the long run)

Wait what?

You wouldn't believe information coming from a PT who worked with elite baseball players on shoulder pathology?

Are you fucking retarded? Do you know how much research goes into pitching throwing and the upper extremity with a sport like baseball? There's a high level of injury risk for the shoulder in that sport such that anyone who worked in that population would have to have extensive knowledge of the shoulder joint in order to excel in that field

Or are you so deluded as to think that the same biomechanics that apply to baseball somehow DONT apply to weightlifting?

I'm pretty sure Soviet athletes like Klokov, son of Soviet champion, could even have had their shit re-engineered to be more efficient at a particular sport. Who knows what they do in China, too.

that is not how impingement works.

you are slowly perforating your tendons, after years of this kind of damage, your rotator cuff will be fucked.

unless you can manage to stay in the frontal plane while doing btn.

which 99.9% of people cannot.

Taking the joint through fuller rom but low to no weight. A traditional goblet squat is a mobility exercises with a free weight. Shoulder dislocations is one with no weight.

So it's a mobility issue then?

>>34919271
Are skullcrushers included in pullovers? They're a pretty similar movement.
>>
>>34933240
I think it's that pullovers go so far back. You'll see it compared to over arm throwing motions.

I have a thing on it somewhere I'll post a copy if I can find it.

Yes. Letting them do their thing and not retracting them.

>>34927104

Klokov does btn presses all the time. Doesn't mean they're safe.
You gotta have the right genetics to be able to withstand those - and even then you can still develop a shoulder injury.

>>34913116

IIRC Arnold has tore his pec once or twice from DB flys.

I'd like to see injury stats for people who try to do olympic lifting and drop out because of serious injuries at some point, especially in those third work countries.

It would probably help people realize what's the exception and what's the rule.
