I was gonna ask: shoulder or back? rip say hi to zyzz & pianaman for me
Wyatt Kelly
How long have you been lifting?
You're not the first person I've heard that's snapped their shit up doing DB Shoulder Press.
If you're shaking at when lifting that means you're using too much weight, even if you're only shaking on the last rep or two, it's still a sign that you're using way too much weight.

>don't ego lift
Thanks I never heard of that before.

>he went heavy on dumbbell overhead press
You're supposed to go heavy on OHP, not the dumbbells.
If you OHP 60kg for reps, you should only do around 25 or 27.5kg dumbbells for reps. You were using 40kg dumbbells..........that means you better be able to OHP AT LEAST 80kg for reps, or you're going to snap your shit up....let me guess, you can't OHP 80kg for reps, can you?
Daniel King
Rip. Op. It's not over until you get kicked out of the gym.
Aiden Gutierrez
Serves you right, ego lifting manlet cuck bitch.
Grayson Garcia
Fuck bro sorry to hear that.

Jacob Davis

Jeremiah Miller
how is a ligament tear a permanent injury? you get surgery
Mason Bailey
lmao
Nathan Bennett
I cringed at the thought of db ohp before I even read the rest of your story. Doesn't sound like a very good exercise. Sure you can get gains by lifting anything heavy but it sounds incredibly risky which is also a measure of how good an exercise is.

Sounds contradictory to the entire point of OHP which is to be a compound lift where the power comes equally from your core as much as from your upper body. OHP is not supposed to be just a deltoid or tri exercise and if you think so you have never done OHP correctly.
Hudson Reyes
Which is why you do both and the db is for accessory? dyel?
Austin Sullivan
Literally what I did 2 months ago bro, but I only dislocated and slightly pulled my ligaments. Was the worst feeling I've ever had. Sorry to hear mate
Jaxon King
Or I could just do regular OHP and get my accessories in another way that isn't as incredibly injury prone. You do realize you can isolate tri's or individual delts without db ohp?
Alexander Ortiz
Cont.
Now I'm just doing a fuck load of rotator cuff excersizes to strengthen muscle because it pops out so easily now

>incredibly injury prone
Jacob Kelly
Just reading about it made me shiver at the thought so yeah. Even common sense should tell you not to do this, if you lack one then other people's experiences in this thread can hope to replace it.

>hurt back on squats couple years ago
>still use it as an excuse to skip leg day today
Adrian Wood
haha, i do this exercise with my arm weight and i feel my shit about to snap up
i would only ever use a barbell for the press(tm)
Elijah Cook
I snapped my shit up doing this, tore my labrum a couple years ago. Had to take 6 months off lifting, get surgery, wear a sling while it healed etc. and even now the shoulder doesn't feel quite the same. Fuck DB OHP and fuck ego lifting. I sure learned my lesson that day.

Fuck you Veeky Forums, you never warned me about this stuff
Noah Rogers
I know the feel.
l5 S1 slipped disk and now disk issues in my neck.
I am on 300mg of Lyrica twice a day and I still have trouble lifting my arms above shoulder height.
Kayden Nelson
85 lbs is pretty fuckin heavy dude, I would not be surprised if he could. Can you?
