Conseils techniques
When you extend your legs, make sure not to lock your knees. Keeping a slight bend in your knees at the top of the movement can help prevent potential knee injuries.
Avoid the temptation to let the weight slam back after pushing it up. Control the descent of the weight, resisting the urge to let gravity do the work. This will engage your muscles throughout the entire movement and reduce the risk of injury.
Don't lower the weight too far. Your knees should not go past your toes when you lower the weight, as this can put undue stress on your knees. If your glutes lift off the seat, you've gone too
