New Press technique and approach 175/185 lbs 4 x 2, 24 kg swings, wt pushups

 After seeing this video about building the overhead press and watching the guy press from his chin it got me thinking how much I could press from that position.Played with it a bit in warmups and while it didn't feel good it got me going on using a thumbed grip, my lifting shoes ( 1/2" heel adidas) and starting more upright and leaning back AS I pressed
it worked great!

here's the press video
