Conseils techniques
Keep your body in a straight line from your head to your heels. Avoid letting your hips sag or your butt stick up in the air, as this can place undue stress on your lower back and shoulders. A common mistake is to forget about the lower body and allow it to sag or pike, which can lead to poor form and potential injury.
Lower your body slowly and push back up with control. Avoid rushing the movement or using momentum to push yourself back up. This is a common mistake that can lead to injury and reduces the effectiveness of the exercise
