Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
- 2. Symmetry between sides matters — if one side compensates, reduce load and address the gap.
- 3. Establish a stable base before adding any dynamic component.
Regression:
Reduce weight by 30% and use a cable or machine variation to better isolate the target muscle.
Progression:
Progress to a free-weight from a machine variation once motor pattern is established.
Common Problems:
Using momentum to complete reps — reduce weight and slow the tempo. Partial range of motion — use full stretch-to-contraction on every rep.
