I read comments elsewhere (may have been on Dr Darden's site) that you are thinking of abandoning the overhead press. What is the reason for this?

Some questions:
What is the function of the timer?
Chin ups - is that range of motion necessary?
Barbell press - again that range of motion - is that needed?
Shrugs - don't get a mention in the book?
Abs - again not mentioned in the book - is these moves "congruent"? Are the hip floexors (psoas etc) out of this? Also I note the negatives

Simple exercise, complicated biomechanics: scapulohumeral rhythm. Chronic shoulder aches after a lot of other corrections are leading me away from this movement. With weights, anyway.

Timer: set for 30 seconds, so I don't distract myself by counting.
Chins: The important part is 90 degrees of shoulder flexion; how far above or below is debatable.
Press: didn't realize there was anything out of the ordinary about the range, I'll have to watch again.
Shrugs: correct, I didn't have too much interesting to say about them.
Abs: didn't come up with an appropriate analysis to fit the others. Yes, I believe the psoas is holding static in those positions.
Thanks for your interest.
