I do standing BTN press (haven't seen a seated rack but I guess you could do it in a power rack or smith seated ?)

Started light to get the form right (deep and deliberate) and loved how it seemed to hit medial delt more (maybe even a little bit rear delt?). Now I do them at the end if every delt train, usually superset with face pulls or rear delt flies. Go up to 2pps no worries, almost as heavy as normal military press.

how often do you do BTN press bro? and whats your opinion on in compared to normal BB press. i tried it but went really light and slow got a good pump but a bit scared to load up the weight. how low/high you press?

ive started doing only BTN bro i think its a much better exercise and hits the rear and medials where as pressing in front is hugely front delts. i do them very slowly and carefully, in the past when ever i have hurt my delts its been from a jerking motion so i keep it really slow and controlled. you don't need alot of weight imo. i also set the power rack up so that the bar comes to my lips and no lower if im going so low i touch i do it at the end and only very light, not worth blowing out a rotator :shock: :shock:

Are these lips behind your neck? Or do you mean like below your ear kind-of level?

Can't say I've ever felt rear delts getting worked from a BTN press, the position of hands behind the head rotates my delts backwards and my Front delts do all the work. Intredasting tho :lol:

kinda hard to know bro as i tapered off the weight a bit before i blew my pec but relative to that session i would probably be able to get 160 x 4ish i guess.

if that starts happening bro drop the weight right back and focus on contracting your shoulder blades back as much as possible and slowing down the movement (alot) imo its near impossible to relearn proper form unless you lower the weight. give that a go and focus on really slow negatives, diff grips and also the plane of movement i.e tucking your elbows ect.

but over all please stay safe and keep of the v brah
