Dead-Stop Seated Overhead Press
Try this on your next shoulder workout. Notice I have set the rack safeties a bit higher than the bottom position of a typical overhead press. This shortened range of motion is better tolerated by the shoulders.
Dead-stop training is a great exercise modification if you're starting to notice the all-too-familiar ache of tendon pain. It's a technique that imposes a pause between the eccentric (lowering) and concentric (lifting) parts of a lift. Unlike a paused rep, it allows you to briefly release tensile load from the working muscles and tendons. – Merrick Lincoln, DPT
