    Little bit, but you don't really have to worry unless its excessive in your thoracic, squeeze the abs

    It's not the lean that's the issue, you are really, really loose throughout this set. Look only at your hips. They are moving all over the place at every point of the vid. When you are top dead center you want to have the whole system locked down. Get as tight as you can in your thighs, ass and trunk. Like Matt said, Squeeze. You'll find this will smooth out the entire operation.

    Next time you post video, get your whole body in the shot so that we can give you better advice. The press, contrary to popular belief, is not just about the upper body.
