Need to see your grip width. Also, be sure that the bar is resting on the heel of your palm; across or inbetween your thenar and hypothenar eminence.

You could add more hip movement into the press, have you read SS 3'rd edition?

Sure. Usually you need to record a challenging weight for a form check to be productive, but if it's just to check the grip width then post away.

If you've read the 3rd edition, I'd recommend re-reading it. Granted, I stopped watching after 2 reps but you're not using your hips at all.

And my personal preference is to start each rep from the bottom. I believe that in the book, the option is there to do it either way.

Ok, in what way should i use my hips more?

[Jimmy Tereyla]

You should be driving them forward as far as they can go. Do this with locked knees and keep everything tight. Then press.. should become a fluid motion.

If that is as far forward as they go, you have other issues.

is there a big difference between the 3rd and 2nd editions? I have the 2nd edition copy of the book. >.<

[Jimmy Tereyla]

Yes, big difference. Hips are crucial now.
