Focus all your attention to the core first.Also remember that you should feel it all around your core, including front, sides, back and lats. It simply means tightening the muscles, and as a result some muscles will draw in (abs) and push out (obliques) naturally but this should not be your focus. Remember that bracing your core, which is the most important thing for safety, doesn't mean pushing out or drawing in anything.Even with "perfect" form movement wise, you're still at a huge risk for injury if you don't tighten your body, and the lower back is in the middle of it all.

It just feels that way because you're putting more effort into each rep. Bolted connections are everywhere, from the frame of your DIY 3D printer to. Harder doesn't mean the weight got heavier. It’s not much of a stretch to say that without nuts and bolts, the world would fall apart.If you're used to being loose for every rep, even warmups with the bar, then staying tight will feel harder, because it is.See the Related Subreddits section for other popular fitness-related subreddits.General Posting Guidelines (click for more info): No Questions Related to Injury, Pain, or Any Medical Topic Progress Posts Must Be Detailed and Useful Posts Must Be Specific to Physical Fitness and Promote Useful Discussion No Threads That Are Answered by the Wiki, Searching Threads, or Google Welcome to r/Fitness!
