Shoulder Press substitute?
Anybody have a good substitute for 'Behind the neck Shoulder Press' to still focus on shoulders?
I can't do any pushes behind my neck anymore do to a bum shoulder.

Sorry, should have clarified...I can't do any overhead presses at all. Just looking for an exercise (s) that might be able to get similar results w/o the strain

You probably have that bum shoulder due to behind the neck shoulder presses

Sometimes dropping the angle of an adjustable works well for shoulder presses. The angle is between vertical and the 45 degree angle, commonly used, for incline pressing.
If this is out, stick with wide-grip upright rows for the medial delts. Side laterals, usually will not allow you to pack on the same amount of muscle mass as wide-grip upright rows.
Your chest work should cover the anterior deltoids.

Awesome...thanks for the input...I think I'll go with the wide grip upright rows for a while, since I'm already doing frnt,sd and B.O. raises

I was recommending it to Baller9. I always start my workout off with "Arnold Presses". It's a great exercise for anyone who has hurt their shoulder that hits your anterior and side delts.

Here's a cool article in Flex Magazine about exercises you should avoid. It lists behind the neck barbell presses in it.

Smak - Thanks for the link - I haven't done skullcrushers or deads in the last two years - don't miss them a bit.
