messed up skull crusher form

[t3c]

god damn it....today i videoed myself doing incline skull crushers and i saw that my elbows were flared alot. I know my form didn't change so that means i have been using this shit form all along. what a waste, i was so pissed the whole workout.

Just thought i would vent to my fellow elite about it

comfort me brothers!

at least you discovered the problem, better late than never. Adjust and move on

why incline? why not just flat?

 

[Kurtz2]

not a waste...elbows flared is not totally bad, man.

 

[RusPA81]

I personally find that if you do not keep your elbows flared a bit, it just kills the elbows.

 

[Scotsman]

I have to flare my elbows otherwise it kills my joints. Just the way everything lines up I guess.

VERY common mistake. I'd say 90% of guys I see doing skulls do them that way. Try reverse grip. It's cheat proof.
