I can't possibly do overhead presses, or snatches, because my arms don't raise even close to 20 degrees from upright. no flexibility.
there's your bench press problem
the brain/nervous system knows there's limitations there so it will limit what you can lift...it knows how much it can do (97) without fear of injury but it knows that anything more will result in injury and "protects you" from doing it but simply not letting you do it
the brain/ns won't let you lift anything you can't stabilise
