## Physiology
- Shoulder Adduction (Clavicular Head, Sternal Head of Pecs)
- Shoulder Flexion (Anterior Deltoid, Clavicular Head)
- Elbow Extension (Triceps Brachii)
- Load with moderate-heavy weight, 6-12 reps, or as finisher exercise with bodyweight and 30+reps
## Form
- Cross legs
- Shoulder blades retracted and depressed before eccentric
- Lean torso slightly forward
- Lower torso down under control for 2s
- Keep scapula retracted and thoracic spine extended (no rounding of upper back)
- Go down until upper arm and forearm make about a 90° angle
## Errors
- Anterior Scapular tilting → keep back straight, don't go too deep
- Trying to stay too upright
