Jeff Roark Style Press 135-200 and back again

 Perhaps the only technique I haven't tried is this close stance off the pins style press I saw Jeff Roark do. he  did 12 sets of 2 with 225 in this  style weighing around 180. I had nothing to lose so I gave it a try. Didn't even think I could do the setup  but after messing about with it a lot it seems to be pretty good for me

I started off the hooks and that worked well until I  missed the hooks on the descent a few times. So I went back to just off the pins with the bar pressed against the back rack. Couldn't get my feet under the bar comfortably so I went back to the hooks. 

I'll figure out the descent another day- this felt great

Still have to place my feet closer ( not as close as Jeff with heels touching) but the whole technique felt solid
