Trainer tips

  • Spread your elbows and pull out to the sides
  • Keep a straight line from head to feet
  • Squeeze your shoulder blades together and squeeze your rear delts

Cautions

  • If your shoulders shrug up, it strains the joints, so keep your shoulders down.
  • Using momentum can cause injury, so maintain a steady pace.
  • Tucking the elbows against the torso
  • Sagging the hips and overarching the lower back
