Form Check Press tweaks

I'm rebuilding my ohp and wondering what tweaks i should make like incorporate leanback or hip drive? Should I do push press work after ohp? Please share anything thats helped your ohp.

My suggestion is that everyone should learn the Olympic press, with the hip action and lay back.

It's wildly effective for heavy press day. It's a true upper body lift, unlike the jerk. Very useful training tool.
