⚠️ Most common mistake: Letting the elbow flare forward, turning the lift into a chest-driven press. Twisting the torso to muscle the rope down, which steals load from the triceps. Cutting the lockout short, missing the strongest contraction at the bottom. Bouncing the weight up at the top instead of controlling the return.
💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Triceps.
