Still working & still seeing improvements. Latest tweak today has been to not pause at the bottom. Gotten into a real bad habit with this because of constantly checking form/technique through every inch of the movement. Hit a couple of sets today were I hit bottom quite quickly & felt the kickback for the return.

That could be more down to my photographic skills & where I was stood. Generally he does hit the correct depth.
