Pictures that are worth a look

Take a good look at todays pictures it might help you with your strict press form. Note Elbow and torso positions. The goal is to get those elbows under the bar! Note the pictures with elbows not under the bar and how the torso then tends to arch back. This elbow and torso position also pushes the bar further away from the body.

On another note, I saw some really good adjustments today that led to plenty of extra reps. Did you feel the difference when you took a huge breath, squeezed the glutes, locked in the core, and then pressed the weight?

I'll upload some more comments and content later...
