Today's tip of the day for this workout is to keep your jaw relaxed. As we do upper body exercises we tend to tighten our jaw, hold our breathe, and create all sorts of tension in our neck and spine. So keep the mouth slightly open, the neck relaxed by looking ahead at the horizon, focusing on breathing throughout the movement, and keeping our traps relaxed. One way I do this is to think shoulder roll...UP, BACK, DOWN, and lock them in there...
As soon as you feel your traps creeping up toward your ears. Relax. Let out a big breath, and do the same shoulder roll movement again to lock them back down. You may have to repeat this many times for awhile until it becomes muscle memory at some point.
