Hit OHP twice a week if you want to focus on it. I usually hit The actual OHP as a primary movement in one session and then I sometimes hit a variation in another session (DB, Machine, etc). But I would suggest actually hitting it twice a week if you want to bring it up quick.

Well I’m not sure what OHP really is but I’m assuming it’s a standing press over your head. Whether you use some leg drive or you lean back for some pop or you are strict, squats will strengthen your base. Locking out heavy weights above your head can really push the limits of strength in your trunk.
I guessed, based on his stats that he would probably require strength gains throughout his body and squats will hit this. Obviously he must press too but I’d bet that any pressing plus squats once a week will see better results than OHP 2x a week.Tobacco prostitute

Press more by pressing more...
1: Incline press
2: Pause overhead press
3: Bh neck press or bradford press
4: Push press
5: Swissbar overhead press
6: Facepull and IYT (for shoulder health)
1-3 power off the chest
4-5 lockout powerTraining journal: https://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=176692881
I know what I have to do, and I’m going to do whatever it takes.
If I do it, ill come out a winner, and it doesn’t matter what anyone else does.

Thebritishwolf,
At your current level of strength any sort of simple routine would work just fine. If you are looking for a cookie-cutter program then you could do a lot worse than something like 5/3/1 or simple linear periodization.-Training log: https://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=176846641

Depends where your weakness is.
Z-press has been mentioned and is good for increasing core strength, if you feel unstable when the weight gets higher it's your core letting you down.
If you struggle to lift off your upper chest then some incline bench or paused OHP will help.
If you struggle to lock out then work more tricep isolation.
Good lats are also useful to control the descent and stay in a good position throughout the lift, this also applies to bench.Squat - 190kg
