215 press, 217.5 miss at lockout,wt pushups, laterals rear delts

 Surprisingly good day. Decided to go back to loading the bow but thought about it as "just do a standing incline press. It worked well, especially after not doing it for such a long time. 

Didn't want to overthink it, just push my hips forward and let my torso arch and then press. I  realized at the end of the session that once I push  my  hips forward then I have to let my back bend back enough to 'get under the bar' and make it an incline

At first I was trying to keep from leaning back too much wanting to start with the bar as high off the rack as possible but that kept me too upright and the bar going forward

Also it seems I need a half a thumbs length  WIDER grip and my elbows don't flare. We'll see if this holds but I think since I'm starting so leaned back it's necessary

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 ...
