Are your movements and technique purposeful or are you simply going through the motions?
The first thing we tell our athletes when they are about to perform ANY lift or movement is to visualize how the set it SUPPOSED to look and feel. We recommend that you try to capture as many details as possible: such as; how does the bar feel in your hands, how does the grip feel, how will you set up, how will it feel to move the bar from point A to point B. This is a skill that improves overtime and you have to force yourself into the habit of analyzing the lift or movement before you approach the weight or machine. Always try and have a cue in mind such as setting your shoulders back or squeezing your glutes, etc. This will help improve your performance and gain proficiency in a specific movement, quickly.
