I can't think of ANY legitimate reason to ever do a machine press..from the standpoint of scapular mobility alone it makes no sense. Looks like something thrown in to get more work. You could get more work while throwing in more useful things.
The machine press was an afterthought. I was being lazy...I did it for triceps work instead of doing OH tri extensions.

If I get equally sore every time I press despite the volume, wouldn't it make sense to do more volume when I have a press day? If I could spread that volume out, then I would. Maybe I'm still not understanding...?
