What should be the optimal ratio between standing BTN press and standing overhead press from the front?

There is none.

My BtN is about 80% of my press from in front (with minimal layback). Not to claim I am optimal, but for a data point.

#4

I OHP(standing) 155, and bench 265. Not sure what the ratio is supposed to be but I would think it should be around 75%. Btw I dont train Ohp much and havent maxed on it in a couple months so It could be a bit higher.

#5

I’m too scared to do BTN Press so zero
