I’ve recently realized the behind the neck press does not cause shoulder impingement while OHP to the front does. After reading most of the article on T-Nation about the OHP and specifically the BTN Press, it seems to be the consensus that the BTN Press is too dangerous to add into a normal routine in substitution of the OHP.
If I don’t feel impingement during this exercise should I keep it in my program? Or is the risk of injury truly high enough to relegate me to dumbbells only? I severely want to get back into pressing overhead, especially with the full activation of the barbell, but I don’t want another RC injury to roadblock my training.
