prioritizing the push press in 5x5

New member
As the title implies I wish to focus on my push press more in the 5x5.I am wondering if it would be feasable to substitute BTN push presses for one or both of my bench sessions.I wanted to push press on the mon/fri and bench on the wednesday,but it is supposed to be a light day so heavy benching might be detrimental there.Would it be feasable to perhaps bench on monday,military press on wednesday and push press on friday?

If anyone has any input please feel free to respond.
 
I'm also looking for new ways to increase my amount of pressing lifts. I'm sure it varies from individual to individual, but I've found two presses the same week can be very taxing on my shoulders. I try to get around the situation by switching things up as much as I can. Alternating between stricter military-style and OHP and you suggested. I'll do one of my days using a snatch grip. Rotating in Bradford Presses. Even Plate Raises. Anything that's going to work the muscle differently if fatigue is setting in (which is a decent % of the time). It's been helpful, though my situation is also in need of improvement. At least it gives my another goal to work for.

I'm looking forward to the responses this thread gets. I'm sure there are many here more knowlegable than I.
