Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Keep the ribcage down and neutral spine — avoid arching lower back to assist.
- 2. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
- 3. Control the eccentric — lower in roughly twice the time it takes to press.
Regression:
Reduce load by 30% and shift focus to the eccentric portion of the movement.
Progression:
Add weight, increase tempo on the eccentric, or progress to a single-arm variation for greater stability demand.
Common Problems:
Uneven lockout — identify the weaker side and address with unilateral assistance work.
