- 1. Do not hesitate to ask for assistance if the load is heavy or if you are a beginner.

- 3. Do not pull with your back.
- 4. For your comfort you can contract your lumbar without moving the pelvis.
- 5. Do not break the wrists during the draw.
- 6. Control the movement of the bar intentionally throughout the exercise. Do not get carried away by the weight.
- 7. Do not raise your elbows too high, the maximum is about shoulder height.
