Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Stretch-to-contraction on every rep maximises fiber recruitment.
  2. 2. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
  3. 3. Peak contraction squeeze at the end range adds cumulative time under tension.
  4. 4. Small incremental overload over many weeks beats large jumps in load.

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:

Going to failure too early — leave 2 reps in reserve to maintain form quality throughout the set.
