Going high reps on bench is what screws peoples shoulders up.

Yes
Sorry, Coach. My mistake. Haven't done the Oly bar in years. I'm old, like you, and my shoulders can't do much these days. DB chest-press, once-a-week: we  gotta /hafta do/ what we can.   :)

Really depends on how I feel but usually BB only because I like starting with a power exercise and keep my reps between 1-5. usually the second exercise is DB work (flat) either bench or floor press.

The thing about bench pressing that fucks up the shoulders is that the glenoid cavity (not your brown star) is NOT supported in any way, shape or form during the lift. Your shoulders are hanging off of the bench.

THe humerus is lightly seated in the glenoid cavity and held together by tendons of the rotator cuff.


Floor pressing would be a safer bet, but nobody really runs around with shirts saying "Floor Press Club"- or do they/

Generally shoulder (or joint problems in general)  problems occur with by just being repetitious with an exercise, ware and tear if you will. I've never had any real joint problems with the exception of them just aching from getting older, even to this day. I have had meniscus surgery and need surgery on the other meniscus, but thats expected when you get older....with anyone.

Well, you better get back in there...you know what they say with guys your age.  Muscle breaksdown at a remarkable rate and there's only so much HRT can do.  Looks like rain...
