The barbell pullover targets the chest and upper back, making it a versatile addition to your routine. To avoid common mistakes, ensure your lower back remains flat against the bench to prevent strain. Use a controlled motion to maximize muscle engagement and reduce injury risk. Start with a lighter weight to perfect form, gradually increasing as strength improves. For beginners, dumbbells can offer more control than a barbell. Advanced lifters can add tempo changes or pauses for increased intensity. Always prioritize proper breathing, inhaling as you lower the barbell and exhaling as you lift.
