>>37867332
Using your legs to get moment is a variation of the OHP called the Push Press. It's also used on this site as an indicator of strength as a different exercise.
Click on the "about" section on the top and see what the criteria are for each lift on symmetricstrength.

>>37867318
Hey mefrom6monthsago, I got some tips for you. Your DLs won't go down, they don't need work, leave them alone. Lie down and bench, stand up and Press. Do this as your primary goal, and don't forget your delt raises. They fucking suck but they are needed.

>320lbs DL
>proficient
How light are you m8?
>>
>>37867332
No, don't use legs in OHP. Slight bouncing is a bastardized push press/OHP hybrid

So if i do Yates row instead of pendlay rows, should I even put it in? I feel like it will give me skewed results. For example I did 66 kg x 7 yesterday while my bench for example is only 60x5 so i imagine my pendlay would be much lower

It's my weakest lift by far. Almost proficient on my OHP.

You work out 3-4 times a week if youre natty, more and you are basically your own gains goblin. Also novice on SS is the strength level of someone who has been working out around 3 months, not a literal novice who just touched the bar for the first time. Read the definitions instead of making assumptions.

Do something other than chin ups.
Also, with that strength I'm guessing you don't do full ROM.
Go until chin hits the top of the bar and go down until elbows locked. Waggling up and down on the bar isn't doing shit mate.
