Exercise FAQ
What’s a common mistake people make here?
Rushing reps and losing body position. Keep the movement smooth and repeatable so tension stays where you want it. Think of it as power/skill done with repeatable, clean reps.
How should I program this in a workout?
Use it after your warm-up when you’re fresh. Aim for 2–4 sets and choose a rep range that matches your goal (strength: lower reps; muscle: moderate reps).
Which muscles should feel like they’re doing most of the work?
You should feel the target muscles working while the rest of the body stays braced. If a joint or the lower back is doing the heavy lifting, reduce load and tighten your setup. Think of it as power/skill done with repeatable, clean reps.
