Training Troubleshooting, Four Common Bodybuilding Errors : Improper form when performing exercises

↪ Lifting too light a weight
Improper form when performing exercises:

Using proper form when performing an exercise is incredibly important. For one thing, it ensures that the proper muscle group is being focused on. The more your form deteriorates, the more likely it is that other muscles are being brought in to take the pressure off of the muscle group you actually want to be working. The other thing that is important about proper form is that it prevents (or at least decreases the likelihood of) injury. 

The more apt you are to start swinging the weight, using momentum, cheating on your reps, etc., the more apt you are to suffer an injury. Essentially, there are three components to proper form: 1) knowing what the proper form is for an exercise, 2) choosing the appropriate weight that allows you stay in that proper form throughout the performance of the exercise and 3) focusing mentally on maintaining that form while you do your reps. Combining these three elements are the best recipe for success when it comes to proper form.
