I m fairly confident you can get a plate up for 3+ if you just did what i mentioned.
I find if i don't warm up it hurts in a bad way when I do it. I also do 3 sets of rotator cuff exercises, but they're quick and easy and preventative more than anything (i do them inbetween db press). I'll ditch the 20 and start at 25 ... is there anything else I can do to help myself out? My biggest issue is throwing that bar up, once it's up its easy.. just sometimes I lock up mid way and have no option but to give up (i try my hardest for a couple seconds, but if its not happening i'd rather ease off than injure myself)'

And I'll try to limit myself to just 2 pushing exercises .. I just don't feel that burn as intensely as I like if I don't do 3 exercises though, so I feel a bit confused as to what to do.
