- Don't round your spine forward (left). Rounding pushes discs outward. Left drawing shows disc pushing outward by bending the vertebrae to that they open in back. Rounded sitting with chin forward shown in 1st and 3rd rower in left photo.

- Stay straight during the pull (right drawing and photo).
