Tried these out today, and hit a speed bump. Cant seem to press beyond my butt. Have latino genes in that department so its an obstacle. Whats the cue, higher speed?

For me it´s about timing and getting comfortable with the feeling of getting under the bar and then time the lift with the swing so to say. Check the exercise video there you can see that this athlete is timing the press to the moment where the legs is swinging back.

Here is my form 3 months ago. Far from perfect or even good because of limited mobility but still I can push through some reps. Its getting better every week. Check the timing:

Hery Peter, the more you bend your knees the harder is moving back to support.
