Tips

To maintain proper posture, keep your chest lifted throughout the entire movement, preventing rounding of the upper back and engaging your core muscles. Ensure your knees track in line with your toes to avoid unnecessary stress on your joints and promote balanced muscle activation. Use a light grip on the handles to minimize upper body involvement and focus on engaging your legs and glutes effectively. Actively sit back into the movement as if pulling yourself backward with your hips, which will shift the emphasis to your glutes and hamstrings. Focus your gaze forward to help maintain a neutral spine and prevent excessive forward lean during the exercise.
