my wood got all bloody Member 1001, 5711 posts SQ 240, BP 160, DL 272.5 672.5 kgs @ 102.5kgs UnEq	Nice push pressing. Thats a lot of weight considering your shoulder issues.

Not too bad to be honest; it's been sore the last few days but I'm beginning to realise that it's deffo heavy benching that's causing the main niggles so really need to do my best and lay off it for a while. Fortunately incline bench and dumbbells don't seem to bother it! The double at 130kg felt brill; I was properly bent over on the last rep, felt like more of a standing bench press haha The 90° dumbbells pressing were a good change; felt easy enough so kept em light'ish and hammered out the reps!

Iv read that neutral grip on dumbells can take the pressure off your shoulders so im going to give that a go.

Although I haven't noticed issues with NG benching for triceps training etc... When you say neutral grip on dumbbells; what do you mean?
