Form tips
Avoid rushing through the movements. Each lift and turn should be performed in a controlled and deliberate manner. This not only helps to avoid injury but also ensures that the targeted muscles are being effectively engaged.
Breathing plays a crucial role in any exercise. Inhale when you lift and exhale when you lower. Incorrect breathing can cause you to become fatigued more quickly and can also affect your performance and results.
Using weights that are too heavy can lead to improper form and potential injury. Start with a light weight and gradually increase as your strength improves. Remember, the goal is not to lift as heavy as possible, but to perform
