If the End & 3T twist is a good counter for zone plays what do the other stunts help counter? When is the best time to be calling them?

Can anyone help me? When I do bench press my right shoulder starts like cramping so hard, when I do more than 144lbs, that I can’t even bring it up again after 4-6 reps.

What should the hand placement be for DL be for Inside Zone, especially for away. If I’m 3tech and they zone away from me should I be getting my hands to the guards outside shoulder still or reaching the inside shoulder of the tackle? We were discussing this as a staff and it split the room. I think we want to get our hands to the outside shoulder of the guard to turn his hips.
