Tips & Considerations

  • Maintain proper form throughout the exercise to maximize benefits and prevent injury.
  • Start with lighter weights if you're a beginner and gradually increase as you get stronger.
  • Breathe steadily - exhale during exertion, inhale during relaxation.
  • Stop immediately if you feel pain (not to be confused with muscle burn).
  • Stay hydrated - drink at least 2.6 liters of water daily.
