ok guys. between these two sets of exercises, which set would you choose and why. my thoughts below.

A
low incline bench press
close grip floor press
side laterals

B
flat bench press
seated overhead press
side laterals

current goal is just as much strength and size each exercise can bring. i am currently doing B, however, I’m wondering if I should go with A because i don’t feel the seated overhead press is doing anything but ballooning my front delts and tris, and with the flat bench, my front delts are getting out of control. I feel like I get no side delt stimulation from the overhead press, which is why I included side laterals (just from a vanity perspective)

i figure if i went with A, while my front delts would probably get as much or a bit less stimulation than B, at least I would get the imaginary "upper chest" work done, and I actually feel the incline press doesn’t destroy my shoulders like the flat bench does. the floor press would be strictly for triceps strength.

bear in mind, if I was doing a standing overhead press, I would definitely include that, but since I’m in my basement, I need to do them seated, so the choice becomes seated overheads or incline bench.

thanks guys, I know it’s petty and insignificant, but that’s what we’re all here for right, to answer these questions? :D
