⚠️ Most common mistake: Swinging the torso back to fling the bar up, which steals load from the biceps and risks lower-back strain. Letting the elbows drift forward at the top, turning the curl into a partial front raise. Cutting the lockout short at the bottom, missing the long-head stretch where most growth lives. Rushing the lowering phase, which throws away the highest-tension half of the rep where the biceps grow most.

💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Hauikset.
