As you are doing the movement, it is very important to set the shoulder into external rotation for safety and healthy shoulders. The cue is bend the bar apart. Think about all the fun we had doing strict pullups, all the same cues apply. (1) Hollow body position, (2) Bend the bar apart, and (3) Retract the shoulder blades and push down on the bar.
Building this shoulder and core strength will help you with your strict press 😉
Have fun!
