Is it still fine if your butt comes off the bench a little bit on every rep?

Not a big deal. It's an assistance exercise.
Rip,
In your earlier LTE video, you say: "Never finish this thing at the bottom unless you want to tear something up," at 11:58.
What am I going to tear up? With my bench/bumper set-up, I'm able to just reach behind my head and pick up the bar from the floor; the bumpers place the bar at almost the exact height of the bottom of the ROM. I start and end the movement on the floor.
Am I a fool for doing this?
Cool, thanks, coach.
Are cable extensions done with movement at the shoulder and elbow a viable substitute if I'm getting elbow pain from these?
Is there a practical way of doing these solo without a handoff?
I tried last night and couldn't reach the bar sitting on the ground even with bumpers and if I used the rack like you did in the video I seemed to collide with it on the way back. I resorted to using dumbbells and it worked but didn't quite feel right.
