I can't go heavier on a barbell without aggravating my shoulders. Left shoulder still has a tear where the biceps attaches to the AC joint. I can do standing military barbell presses behind the neck with ~185 for reps but the injury bugs me when I try to go any heavier.Why smith machine for military press?
Also my right shoulder subluxates from the time I dislocated it and finished a rugby match with it out of socket like an idiot. At this point in the game I just gotta know my body and train around what hurts as best I can, I'm not trying to win any competitions or any bullshit I'm trying to get freaky huge and stay lean.
Also, specifically to smith machine military presses - I figure if it's good enough for a prime Markus Ruhl it's good enough for me no shame in it
