Press: hips stuck forward instead of bounce
Hi all,
ever since the weight got noticeably heavy, I've been struggling with my press technique.
I've practiced the bounce and had no trouble with lower weights, but when using heavier weight my hips
don't come back after pushing forward into the stretch reflex. They stay stuck in the forward position,
held down by the weight, and I end up "getting under the bar" way forward of the midfoot.
I've tried staying tighter before pushing forward, but it didn't change things. Struggling with this
technique issue is messing with my progress, and I'd really like to find a way to put it behind me and
focus on lifting the weight instead.

Can you help me figure out what to do about this?
Thanks!
