• Keep your core engaged throughout the exercise to maintain balance and stability.
• Use a controlled motion to avoid swinging the weights, which can lead to injury.
• Start with lighter weights to master the form before progressing to heavier loads.
• Focus on maintaining a smooth and continuous circular motion for maximum effectiveness.
• Ensure your elbows are slightly bent at the top of the movement to reduce joint strain.
