What version of the overhead press is best? Dumbell, barbell, standing, machine, fixed mini, etc. How do you execute?

For shoulder hypertrophy presses are shit since the main movers are triceps. I recommend that you do flys instead.

Standing overhead barbell press would be my pick for overall.

BUT I guess it depends on how you define best. Best for strength? Maybe a push press. Best for aesthetics? Dumbell press to keep symmetry. Best for lateral delt growth? Behind the neck shoulder press.
