    Hi,

    two things are quite noticeable:

    - you bend your knees. Actually, you never seem to have them properly locked. Apart from adding floppiness, bent knees make your Press not legal, assuming you car about this.
    - when the bar bounces off your chest, your elbows are behind the bar, sometimes by quite a margin. That's a very disadvantageous position to press from.

    I'm also not sure about your grip, but it's difficult to see as the camera is quite far away.

    Going forward, make sure at the very least to lock your knees, hard.

    Hope this helps.
