Thanks, man! I only used the belt to see my arch better, keep the t shirt out of the way. It does help in that it reminds me to keep a belly breath. So, I think all the setup parts are fine, just need more practice, and I'll work on getting more up on my traps, and I won't worry about the bar path (I thought I had to be straighter because whenever I fail it's when the bar is over my face, i thought there was a connection). Also, I didn't think I got much if any leg drive other then better tightness.

ANyway, more practice. I can get the hang of this. It does feel much better on my shoulders, so that's good.

Thanks for all the help, everyone!
