Correlation =/= causation. OHP is a good accessory, but by no means a staple for the bench press.

Okay fair enough then, my bad.

Moral of the story. If you want a good OHP, OHP. If you want a good bench, bench. Crazy concept

Iceman, did you convince any other mods to participate? Is this an event you'd do if your shoulder were 100%?

This is awesome! Hopefully we see lots of submissions on these.. I pretty much have all my programming already laid out up until the next powerlifting meet but I'm sure if there's nothing too crazy I can get in on something. Left shoulder has been bugging me lately on incline press so I'm not sure how well that'd go with any overhead pressing. 135 might not be too bad though, I could do a couple reps on Thursday and see how it feels
