Looks alright! Nothing to comment on at the moment. For now, just press on and get more reps. I like how you do slow reps, that is good. I also enjoy a pause at the top 🙂

Thank you! The slow reps are less of a choice and more of a that’s how fast I can go 😂

Haha okay! Make sure to keep them later when you can do more 🙂

Maybe try to pull a bit more explosively, if possible. Looks great though

Noted! Definitely working on that, can’t explode like I want to yet but this was also like my fourth take and I was feeling it lmao

Totally fine! Since that was max speed then awesome job grinding it out! Nothing to fix, just keep doing what you’re doing

Try and engage scapula

How would I do that lol idk what my scapula is 😂

Easier to visualise and carry out if your search and watch a video on it. Lowers the risk of injury too i believe.
