Make sure there are no obstructions in your lifting area. Wear proper footwear to ensure stability. Make sure pins are secure in the machine before you lift. Follow proper progression of weight advancement for each exercise. Avoid the temptation to lift as much as you can. Concentrate on the exercise that you are performing. Do not carry out conversations at the same time. Stay in control of the lift at all times. Movements should be smooth. Always work with a spotter for bench press, squats, leg press and any other exercise that you need assistance with.
