Cardio is a scam.
At least that's what I tell myself.

Yea, I switched to dumbbells only because I was feeling more of it with em. Problem is, I don’t get debilitating heart beat affected DOMS no matter what weight or how many sets I do
My shoulders always feel the burn long before my chest does. For example, on bench press I’ll feel my front delts ready to give out before I get a solid chest pump
DOMs isn't indicative of a good workout. I only get DOMs after an extended period off from the gym. Even when I was running NSUNs doing 9 sets of bench twice a week I didn't get DOMs. Compounds are only strong as the weakest muscle as well. If you're 100% it ain't a form issue, I'd focus/start my push days with OHP and inclines to increase the strength there.Yea, I switched to dumbbells only because I was feeling more of it with em.

Just feels like the pecs are mailing it in
I want the plate of chest armor look
I switched to OHP as my main push movement years ago because I wanna throw someone over my head
I thank you for your time and next push day I’ll update you

Odd. I'll second whatGawd said. Make sure your shoulder blades are retracted for pressing movements. Usually the people feeling too much shoulder (or injuring them) are pressing with a completely flat back with elbows flared out. Definitely want shoulder blades pinched back creating some arch, and the bar path to come towards your sternum.Yea, I switched to dumbbells only because I was feeling more of it with em.

If you're already doing this, you may just be built different. If so, become a flye god.

Bought 2 tubs of Dark Labz Crack Primal edition and it's the best stuff ever.
killed it on heavy bench n then hit a PR on over head press fukking around, did a nice strict standing 225 press, and this was after benching heavy, hadn't even tried to OHP anywhere close to that weight in months.
