1) Improve your form
2) De-load and try again
3) You're not eating enough, fix it again, take a look at your overall calorie intake. Try to have it in a surplus.~Jesus Christ Is My Savior Crew~

If your problems are at your chest, do rack presses and rest-pause work
If it's at the lockout, do floor presses"I created the Sound of Madness, wrote the book on pain

It's not where you're from; it's where you're going. It's not what you drive; it's what drives you. It's not what's on you; it's what's in you. It's not how you fall; it's how you stand.

It just takes time. You're around bodyweight now, so just keep at it till you can rep bodyweight. Then you can progress to BW+20, +40, etc etc
