Too much lean, I think keep shoulders more open and over the wrists

Sascha Faltinger

yes, you're right. Thank you. Will work on that.

yup, too much leaning! You should just lean a very very tiny bit in the straddle press, pike press needs a little more lean!

Maybe you can do them spotted? Against a wall might be too easy for you, but maybe someone can spot you just as much as you need. Works wonders!

Sascha Faltinger

No problem! haha, yes it really is...even cooler when you first press from sitting! You will be there quicker than you know!

One more thing that helped me soooo much which presses: really think you are pushing down into the ground. push down as hard as possible in order to get your feet up! It really helps!

Sascha Faltinger

ok, i will try that. :-) thanks
