Ive heard tht barbell presses on smith machines really help

The thing with me is that, i can kick the dumbbells up into starting position no problem, i just cant seem to push it off from that point on. Anyone know some exercises that will allow me to target that specific sticky point and explode out into the press? Id say im about 1/3 of the way up and i just cant push up anymore. Its funny because i can rep out 8 for 80s no prob and 5 reps of 85s.. But not even 1 for 90s
man. are you my gym twin? my dumbell shoulder press tops out at 85s too. i think ive done 90s a couple times in the past.
