Back on track press day 175 x 5 x 2, 185 x 5 x 2, 24 kg swings , wt pushups

  thank goodness. haven't completely forgotten how to press overnight

But the bar back right under the clavicle

Wrapped my thumbs.

Didn't try to force the layback and it moved well. Had  few miscues with the bar falling forward but just two

main thing is that I felt I could find leverage and 'make the move'.

also had more tension in arms than I've had and really squeezed the bar. I think I've been trying to keep all the weight in my body and not use the arms til the press and I think that's a mistake. Squeeze the bar and hold it tight and let the tension irradiate down instead of trying to have it irradiate UP.

Wrapped thumb is definitely more shoulder but that makes the bar go up more at the sticking point whereas the  false grip overloads triceps so much that when I stick I push and then the bar goes forward as that's the triceps action.

Well see more monday but today I'm happy

190 x 1 x 12, 210/225 static holds, 24 kg goblet squats, floor pushups 30, 20

 This went VERY well almost all reps identical. Realized I get better drive AND minimize shoulder stress if I unrack it with more weight on ...
