TIP:  Generally speaking, if your form sucks when doing a specific weight exercise in the gym – by that I mean heaving, hyper-extending, arching, tipping, swinging, working the wrong (not targeted) muscle, it usually means that you’re using too much weight. Take it down a notch and focus your effort on using proper form through the full range of motion and full length of the muscle.

Believe me – it will make a positive difference in the way your muscles respond and recover.  Plus, possibly save you from injury that could back-track your progress.

YouTube has a few great video channels devoted to proper exercise form. Then again, there is a lot of crap too – I trust you’ll be able to spot the difference.
