I have read that OHP is the hardest exercise. What you may consider a minimal gain, could be huge. I find it incredibly tough compared to other exercises. Make sure your form is good and persevere. DO NOT turn it into a push press - obviously this is a different exercise and your gains are not true.
If I find the link about how hard it is, I’ll post it. But anyone who does OHP (and not a variation) will tell you that it is tough.
Best of luck

I'm definitely nearest to failure on OHP too, and I don't think I have a particularly weak (compared to untrained, not to people in here) upper body. Has always felt a fair bit harder than the other exercises.
