Conseils techniques

Correct Grip

Hold the barbell with a grip slightly wider than shoulder width. Your palms should be facing your body. Avoid gripping the barbell too wide or too narrow as it can strain your wrists and limit the range of motion.

Controlled Movement

Shrug your shoulders straight up towards the ceiling and hold for a second at the top of the movement. Avoid rolling your shoulders as this can lead to injury and doesn't effectively target the intended muscles. Also, avoid using momentum to lift the weight; the motion should be slow and controlled.

Appropriate Weight

Start with a weight that you can comfortably lift for 10 to 12 repetitions.
