In the past I ran the same program for over head press that I was running for bench. But I think trying to chase after progress on two compound movements takes away from the bench overall. Not sure.
I was wondering, how I should train overhead press to compliment bench press?
This is what I've been doing.
I'm running 3/5/1 for bench.
So on 3's week, I pick a weight and do as many reps as I can with it.
On 5's week, I take about 20-30 pounds from that weight I did on 3's week and do 3 sets x 5 reps.
On 1's week I add about 10 pounds from 3's week and do 3 sets x 5 reps.
Any critique on this? Or should I do something different?
Thanks.
