dont be stupid, do a 3 days split x2 a week, hitting every single muscle group 2 times a week

cut out the lateral raises and upper chest fly, add more volume to overhead press, they train the same thing and there's no reason for them to be there, add a rear delt isolation if you want (i.e reverse flyes) instead because the overhead press doesn't hit it, it depends on your leverages though, ohp might not hit your upper chest as well as it does for me so I might just be talking out of my ass.

OHP
Floor press
Tricep isolation ( press pre-exhausts the triceps anyway)

add some leg isolation because at some point your lack of lower body strength will cause you to stagnate on overhead presses, if you can't squeeze your glutes and hold your legs straight you won't be able to do it well.

pull looks good but most of it more or less hits the same muscles so the variation you've got is mostly for the hell of it and there's no real reason to shift to another exercise that does the same thing unless you enjoy it, that being said some pull movements like lat pull downs and pull ups do hit the biceps to some extend which you can also use to pre-exhaust them, which is more efficient than doing more isolation.

Thank you for the advice. Im thinking about doing one set warmup then 5-6 sets ohp is that enough volume for now? I do 4 sets rn

How much floor press sghould i do i do 3 sets rn. I use dumbell rn and do them like this

both mainly target the anterior and lateral deltoid, so why would you isolate them after you're already been training them? just do more of the thing you were doing to begin with.

OHP trains front and side delts lol
good luck growing your lateral delt from ohp. it gives minor activation its as retarded as skipping rows because "deadlifts train your back brah"
 
you can use the lateral raises to warm up for ohp if you really want to do them, then again you might as well just press an empty bar over your head because it trains the same muscles anyway.

floor allows you to do a lot of volume compared to bench press, so you can do more than that if you want.
good luck growing your lateral delt from ohp.

I barely isolate my shoulders, I just do high volume ohp.

bad advice bro. much easier to over work and damage your shoulder because of too much presses. especially since in a ppl u would do OHP same day as bench. makes no sense to remove an isolation for more compound while significantly increasing injury risk.

he does floor press rather than bench so the additional shoulder strain isn't there, the negative impact bench has on the shoulder joint comes from the negative that's cut out if you do it like that.

I've seen more people cause injuries with 'spamming' lateral raises than overhead press.
i never train calves yet i calfmog this forum. genetics are a thing bro and im sure u know that.

yeah, still more pressing from the same joint.

anyway i really dont see the need to increase ohp volume and cut out lat raises.

ohp is just objectively riskier jfl that counts for more than anecdotes

if your shoulders are supported by the floor the strain is minimal, and you'd still be using the same joint if you did lateral raises instead, it's literally just an inferior version of an overhead press that uses less muscles for no reason, if you can do more compounds you should do more compounds, there's no reason to do isolation unless you're struggling to activate a muscle in a movement due to your leverages or you have an imbalance.

isolation exercises are more stressful to joints than compounds are, because those are distributed across a wider range of muscles, you can just do them lighter if it is a problem.

i seriously doubt your claim that lateral raises put more strain on your shoulder joint than ohp. its very hard to injure yourself doing lateral raises to failure unlike with ohp.

I have actually heard alpha destiny say the same. Weird but not my experience personally, I feel my strain on my joints from bench press the most. Side raises feel great

Pls don't tag that blackie self hating subhuman abomination .
And lateral raises + overhead press is the best excercise to grow shoulders .

alphadestiny the guy who used to hit 0.5 inch rack pulls with 1000lbs jfl wouldn't say he's a good example of a sensible and safe lifter

yeah ik the combination is great but @Arborist here is suggesting removing lat raises and adding more ohp volume instead which i think is a recipe for injury esp in a ppl split. also lat raises are a mogger isolation anyway
