Open in the app⚠️ Most common mistake: Letting the elbows flare forward, turning the lift into a chest-driven press. Leaning the torso forward to push down with bodyweight, stealing load from the triceps. Skipping the hand separation at the bottom, missing the deeper long-head contraction. Bouncing the weight up at the top instead of controlling the return.
💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Triceps.
