Here are a few questions to ask yourself:
1. Are you feeling the exercise in the muscles you are targeting?
For example, to have neck pain while doing crunches is a good indication that your technique is off. Does the exercise in question result in fatigue to the targeted muscle groups, or is the effort coming from somewhere else?
2. Can you control the weight or movement?
Your risk of injury increases the more you rely on momentum. You should be able to pause for a second or two in the most difficult position.
3. Are you using the full range of motion?
Never sacrifice proper form for the sake of adding more weight. Doing an exercise properly means controlling the weight through the entire range of motion.
