I think board pressing would definately help. Looks like your sticking point is like 1/2 way or 2/3 of the way up. Some accessory tricep work like dips maybe or skull crushers.

BTW, awesome work with 475! You make 315 look like baby weight which is ridiculous. lol

Nice pressing Monsta ! I can see 500 is not far away at all.

I find the elbows are my hardest part to adjust also.

I was talking to one of the guys at the gym and he was telling me that he didn't think that board pressing would be very beneficial if you're not lifting in gear. I thought that was interesting because it seems like it would still help with your sticking point. He said that benching with chains or bands would be more beneficial. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

Yep. I actually tried on a bench suit last week and tried lifting the bar. My shoulder comes out of place when I use one...no fun.
