Engine sounds like it wants to turn over but won't. Have seat belt on. Doesn't sound like it

Hi, I stated that it doesn't start but, it has a new battery, solenoid and I cleaned and tightened the battery ground to the motor... Should my next step be jumping over the solenoid to the starter cable and see if the starter will crank?
