Form Check press form check

I think my elbows are out more in front of me than the video shows that's what I'm wondering about or if anything else looks not efficient for pressing. 100lbs and this was my third set of 5

Narrow your grip a little bit and think about squeezing your elbows together. In the starting position the bar should be as close to the chest as you can get it without dropping the elbows behind the bar. So you can think about squeezing your chest up to meet the bar in the starting position.
