He probably put his feet up on the bench to keep his lower back out of the movement. Try it once in warm-up and see how it feels. Takes a while to get used to and forces you to balance the weight with your core more!
Thanks for posting this, Ive always had to struggle to do DB floor press without a partner or do lighter weight, now I can do them alone with heavier DBs. really helpful stuff never thought of doing this.

how good are floor presses for building chest muscle. I know it's prob not like bench press? Also, can't you just stack books and put the weight on them?
I love floor pressing, much prefer it to bench because it feels more natural in that position, ive really improved my overall lifting capacity aswell
