Conseils techniques
Avoid the mistake of dropping the weight quickly and bouncing it off your chest. This can lead to serious injury. Instead, control the weight on the way down and then press it up powerfully. This will engage your muscles throughout the entire range of motion and help you get the most out of the exercise.
A common mistake is flaring the elbows out to the sides. This can put unnecessary strain on your shoulders and reduce the effectiveness of the exercise for your triceps. Keep your elbows tucked in towards your body as you lower and lift the weight.
