- None
- Equipment:
- Sliders

Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Full range of motion: chest to the object on the way down, full lockout at the top.
- 2. Avoid compensation patterns; if form breaks, address the limiting factor.
- 3. Stack wrists directly over elbows at the start to protect the joint.
- 4. Keep the ribcage down and neutral spine — avoid arching lower back to assist.
Regression:
Perform from the knees or elevate hands on a bench to reduce the bodyweight load. Use resistance bands for assistance on overhead patterns.
Progression:
Add a loaded vest or belt to increase total resistance without changing the movement pattern.
Common Problems:
Wrist collapse under load — reinforce a stacked wrist and consider a neutral-grip variation.
