Sweetness. Not a bad rep in the bunch,185-200-185 , 20 kg swings, pushdown

 Well this went perfectly. Not a bad rep all workout and it is simplicity itself. The lessons from monday got incorporated effortlessly

The Cues ( long version)
1) hips in front spot the X

2) Elbows right under bar

3) Stand straight up and lockout, stay on X

4) Head moves back, press straight up

5) Hips move forward immediately

Short Version

1) X

2) Lockout

3) Head back

4) Hips forward

Such nice straight lines! Only iffy rep was the last set with 185 where I let my elbows come forward too much on standup and it was a bit wobbly

135 x 3
155 x 2
175 x 1
185 x 1 x 2

195 x 1
200 x 1 x 2



190 x 1 x 2

185 x 1 x 3

 Couldn't be happier. Keeping the bar rack high, elbows vertical and directly under the bar, pushing the bar up with my arms on unracking ( this keep the start position of the press higher too) and staying on the X, moving my head back as I start to press and simultaneously driving my hips forward.

THIS IS IT
