Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22076 posts	It just doesn't suit some people's anatomy.

My opinions have run their course Member 694, 3112 posts	think BTN can aggravate some people's rotator cuffs, just press to the front, or do some rear delt specific work

I remember reading something quite persuasive that it's not actually a flexibility issue but a structural one, ie some people wont be able to do it comfortably with all the stretching in the world.

sumo ?? no ! no ! Member 1399, 557 posts	Cuddles said:What the others have said. It doesnt suit everyone. I remember reading something quite persuasive that it's not actually a flexibility issue but a structural one, ie some people wont be able to do it comfortably with all the stretching in the world. It's the anatomy of the acromioclavicular joint. The gap between the acromion and the clavicle is very variable between individuals and if you have a small gap, you're going to get tendon impingement when you do overhead pressing. Behind the neck pressing requires more external rotation of the shoulder and narrows the gap even further, so if you have an already small gap then a BTN press will just mess you up.

Hey mate, my name is Paul Dudley Member 632, 3628 posts SQ 200, BP 155, DL 282.5 637.5 kgs @ 77kgs UnEq	HUGE_GUY said:I just joined to ask something like this.

I think mobility work will help with your oly lifting goals... however, I don't really care much about that.. 220 squat and 280kg deadlift at 77kg.. wow, I'm impressed, get a log up and running mate.

I have a nice power clean and press and would love to start oly lifting properly. I throw the weight up easy enough in the jerk but can never hold it because it's way infront of me.
