🔥FORM IS IMPORTANT🔥
I can talk for days about how crucial form is just like everybody else can, but I want to share my thoughts about ONE crucial point I think is very important.
Form should be a priority to you if you want to live a long & healthy lifestyle, of which allows you to NOT abandon your training caused by long term damage. The damage caused by using the incorrect training technique over time☝️
Why do I say this? I did exactly that, I used incorrect form over time while trying to lift heavy weights. Got strong 😏 but my body was broken. So I had to start again and fix all of that damage done, and I’m still in the progress of fixing the issues.
BOTTOM LINE:
If you want to be sustainable, look after what you have that can carry you there. That’s your body. Too many people do not prioritize they’re health over looking great or whatever the story is. I’ve experienced it at least.
One of my favorite exercises to build your triceps🔥 BUT, a very technical exercise that needs to be executed properly in order to keep you free from injury. Trust me, I’ve learned from it😶
A while ago I trained like a meat-head. Why? I found it really fun. But what I didn’t pay enough attention to was the way in which I executed the movement☝️ I was doing this exact exercise when I hurt my elbow badly. I was lowering the weight to perform the rep, but my elbow suddenly got super hot and extremely sore! I had to let my partner take the weight from me.
I had no idea what happened, until I did some research on it. What had happened was that my wrists weren’t straight during the movement, of which can lead to injury in your wrists and elbows👀 I got tennis elbow from hyper extending my forearm muscles on the top side of my arm, stretching out the muscles on the under-side of my forearms, while moving the weight. This means that I was letting the top portion of my forearm become overloaded with work, as my forearms on the under-side weren’t doing their job!😐 THAT CAN LEAD TO INJURY at certain joints. In my case it was my elbow. Your body has to be aligned correctly in order to move weight and avoid injury!👍
