⚠️ Most common mistake: Bending the knees to dip under the bar, which turns the lift into a power snatch and loses the strict pull. Pulling the bar away from the body, which forces the lower back to compensate at lockout. Pressing the bar out at the top instead of pulling it overhead, which strains the shoulders. Using too much weight, which breaks the strict pattern and removes the teaching benefit.
💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Keskivartalo.
