Coaching-Hinweise
Technik-Tipps
Your grip on the barbell should be slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. This will allow for a full range of motion without putting unnecessary strain on your shoulders. A common mistake is gripping the bar too wide or too close which can lead to shoulder or wrist injuries.
Avoid the mistake of dropping the bar quickly and bouncing it off your chest. This can be dangerous and it also reduces the effectiveness of the exercise. Instead, lower the bar in a slow and controlled manner to your chest and then push it back up. This technique will help to engage your muscles more effectively.
