Conseils techniques
Avoid the common mistake of using momentum to lift the weight. Instead, focus on a slow, controlled movement. Extend your legs fully but don't lock your knees at the top of the movement. This will keep the tension on your muscles and prevent joint strain.
Keep your back flat against the seat and hold onto the handles during the exercise. This will help maintain proper spinal alignment and prevent lower back injuries. Avoid arching your back or lifting your buttocks off the seat.
Remember to breathe. Exhale as you extend your legs and inhale as you return to the starting position
