!pushup
I watched that vid a bunch but I was worried I was actually overdoing the lean

Form check first set of today. Trying to take advice and not lean quite so far forward at the top to keep hands and shoulders stacked. Do feel like I move my chest before my core and legs begin to pivot
Wow really burned out hard on set 3 tho set 2 felt better
Just couldn't push at 7 reps

You can lean less forward, no need to lean as much imo @umbral igloo

At which phase? I watched Nick's vid a lot and the descent phase involves rotating yourself foreward.

At the bottom phase. But again, you don't need to, but you can. The reps are harder this way

Third set new week. Actually. Made it my full 3x11 today! Still think it looks like I'm too far forward

Try laying down on the floor, face down with your hands up, first put your hands down and push yourself up before starting your pushups

Will do. I've never felt like I had problems aligning my shoulders and hands before so it's an odd issue to have

Just seeing this. I agree with hamza. Basically what he is telling you to do is hand release push-ups. It seems that you keep pushing yourself forward into a planche style push-up. That is geared more towards your tri’s. Are you looking for chest? If so there’s a few hand placements you could do to hit upper, lower or mid chest. Then variations which would hit other portions along with other muscle groups. I would say to start with hand release and then once your body gets used to going straight up and down then begin to go from the top. Fair warning..hand release is a little tougher since you are starting as low as possible, remember to fully extend through and come down with control. Once your chest touches the ground, release hands into the air (body still on ground), place your hands back to the ground and back up again

I was trying to copy the bwsf vids from nick so I started tipping forward more to do what I thought was keep my forearms vertical XD
