hey guys. im not sure if this has been discussed before. i just watched a video of justin harris doing clean and press. im not sure if it was rest pause style or straight set. just wondering if this exercise can be used in the 2 way split as a shoulder exercise and has anyone done so?? also, in that video, does anyone know if justin was using the 2way split and doing standard dc training or was he training powerlifting style??

Straight set it.
Rest Pause on an exercise as complex as a clean and press is not a good idea.FEAR THE FROG

Something tells me that you'd start squatting every day. Other countries have this mindset. America does not.

What are people's opinions on RPing pressing movements anyway? I've heard a variety of answers. Some people straight set them, some RP them (I'm talking movements like push presses, one arm DB movements, etc.)Disclaimer: I am not a DC trainee/expert/guru/coach, anything I say is purely my opinion based on experience and research I've read

Additionally, if I'm working around an injury, sometimes I'll do one heavish set and one light set, just so I don't have to go so heavy and aggravate the injury.TRUE PROTEIN Discount Code- CSH730

Not that I'm doing DC or anything, but I have experimented with rest pause in the past and wondered how people felt about utilizing it for shoulders. I agree with the straight setting DB presses though, getting the damn things up (whether seated or standing) is just such a hassle that it's better to straight set them.
Unless you're Poundstone of course, in which case cleaning a 200lb dumbbell is hardly any effort at all.Disclaimer: I am not a DC trainee/expert/guru/coach, anything I say is purely my opinion based on experience and research I've read
