@nrg i'm no guru but my take is this, you can mix-up using BB and DB for your bench press workouts, for example day 1 you can use BBs then day 2 focus on DBs and make sure you use full ROM on both.
about adding OHP on your routine, i don't think it could really contribute much on your "Upper pec development" goal. though what i can say is when you start getting better and lift heavier weights on OHP you'll most likely get better w/ your bench where in turnthe more you can bench the better the development of/ your pecs eventually.
About sa fuctionality between seated and standing OHP, definitely mas functional ang standing lets take an example ang isang kargador sa palengke hindi naman po sila naka upo habang may nag aabot ng karga from the ground to their transpo or sometimes they even carry stuffs overhead while walking. Standing OHP lets train the muscle groups need for such motor movement. But to be clear seated OHP has its place in training specially if you're training for physique.
Last conmcern of yours, I'm still looking for a good artic regarding how to setup the proper OHP but we (the mods) will try to post a good artic once na collate na lahat ng kelangan i cover.

ang problme po ay malaki ang weight jumps ng bawat dumbbell dun sa gym na pinagbubuhatan ko
30 lbs, 40 lbs, 50 lbs then 60 lbs na ang pinakamabigat. small time gym lang po kasi. wala rin po silang fractional plates kaya mahirap din magbuo ng dumbbells
pero thanks sa info

you mean, i can still have a well-developed chest using only flat bench press ?
let's say I was able to reach lifting 1.5x of my body weight in the flat bench press ?
@nrg About sa increments ng DBs sa gym mo i think normal lang yang ganyan in most gyms. so u mean hirap ka mag press pag nag increase ng weight tama po ba?
then about dun sa second question mo, of course it will yun naman talaga ang isa sa mga targeted muscle groups ng bench. and gaya ng nasabi ni mighty as you get stronger dun ka talaga makakita ng very noticeable improvements.
konti na nga lang talaga mabebreak na nya record ni mendi. aakyat na naman of course ang threshold sa RAW benching. teka nagcocompete din ba ng may shirt si spotto? or wala pa?
Nag wowobble yung bar pag nag bebench ako, lalo na pag magaan. Palagay ko di balance ang power distribution ko o mali ang positioning ng shoulder blades ko.
Stability mainly ang issue jan, Stable foot placement and more likely you are not "tight" enough during whole movement (this is where arching helps as well) ppwede ding because of weak triceps and you are not firing your lats well enough.

Ganyan yung libreng bar at plates sa bench ko masiyadong maiksi kaya hindi safe sa BP.
more on hypertrophy sana... but kung kaya both mas ok sir hehe
dapat tinawag nya si captain barbell hahaha:sport::sport:
ay.. wala pa naka pag post nito... post ko na din since maganda yung pag kuha from the top at yung few pointers nila.
Sa flat BB press not sure, I'll have to check next chest day.
Thanks dito sir Braso!
Twice a week lang kasi ang weight training ko
Ito ang current setup ako
Day 1 - Flat BB
Day 2 - Inclined BB
Wala po akong overhead press. Ano po recommendation nyo ?
Pwede bang Flat BB + Overhead press na lang ?
Made-develop pa rin ba ng maayos ang upper pecs ko using Flat BB + Overhead Press ?
kung real-world functionality naman, mas maganda ba ang standing overhead press kaysa seated overhead press ?
sana po magkaroon rin ng ganitong thread para sa Overhead Press
thanks

He'll crush Mendhelson's record very soon!
Sayang yung 715lbs attempt nya last November, ga bulbol na lockout na lang kinapos pa! That would've been the new raw WR!
nangyari na to sakin dati pa..hilulog ko na lang mga plates lol pero nakakatakot to,natawa lang ako sa dadddddd....pero nakakatakot

Langya parang suminga lang sa 660 eh
sa 700lbs parang yun palang ang opening lift nya.
tapos 10 reps at 500lbs? parang "back-off" set pa nga yun dahil mukhang di pa sya pagod hahaha
anu ba RAW record ni mendy?
Nag try na sya actually ng 715 last Nov. 3 in a meet. Ga-bulbol na lang lockout na sana di pa nakuha sayang talaga!
turo sakin yan ni sir monch at sir dalton...
pero dapat yung upper back at glutes mo lang nkalapat sa bench...
Ano ba main causes ng pag wobble?
