185 lb press 8 x 2, 195 x 1, 205 x 1, 24 kg swings, floor pushups

This went well. I got my knees to stay locked and maintained good upward pressure on the bar at the start. That worked well.
I still need a better start trigger though as it appears I'm leaning back just slightly before, or as I drive my hips.
I think my elbows might need to be more exactly vertical under the bar as I start to drive straight up. I still think I'm driving the bar back too much early and this is giving me some wiggles in the drive line too often.

I'll play with it. Slept well, wasn't too sore but it was cold and I had trouble warming up. Have to do more multiple warmup sets with 135 I think, Perhaps 155 too instead of just blindly making the jumps even if  things feel creaky

Had one weird dip/shift/ twist on 175 that I've never done before that was bizarre. Thank g-d I didn't tweak anything 





The 195 went great then I missed my first attempt with 205 as my knees unlocked and the bar moved forward. Great test that showed if my knees soften the bar shifts forward. First time it had done this all workout

Got to get the visual of pressing in a straight line with my  forearms directly under the bar and see if that works. I have to press vertically and adjust my body  around THAT line
