⚠️ Most common mistake: Letting the elbows drift forward and away from the ribs, which turns it into a press. Leaning the torso heavily over the bar to use bodyweight instead of triceps strength. Cutting the lockout short instead of fully extending the arms at the bottom. Snapping the bar back to the start and skipping the controlled return.

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