• Always keep the chin inward.
• Exhale while going up through the mouth and contract the muscles even more
• inhale through the nose while going down
• do the exercise slowly and in a controlled manner
• Warm up before exercise is necessary

Fitness icon Shilpa Shetty advises warming up before starting exercise. She says that every training program should begin with an adequate and efficient warm-up that should include some mobility drill exercises. Never forget to do this.
