Conseils techniques
Avoid pulling the bar down using momentum. Instead, use a slow, controlled movement to pull the bar down to your chest, and then allow it to slowly return to the starting position. This will engage your muscles more effectively and reduce the risk of injury.
Hold the bar wider than shoulder-width apart. Your palms should be facing forward. A common mistake is gripping the bar too tightly or too loosely, both of which can lead to wrist strain or loss of control of the bar.
The primary muscle group you should be working during this exercise is your latissimus dorsi (lats).
