SLOW DOWN YOUR REPS A lot of people just go through the motions, do fast half reps, and break a little sweat and think they’re training hard. Slowing down your reps will also help work on your mind to muscle connection. Work on your form Work the full range of motion Slow and controlled on the eccentric part of the movement Explode and control on the concentric part of the movement You’re going to have to leave your ego at the door and lower the weight because you will not be able to do the same amount of weight for the same amount of reps after slowing down your reps. We’re here to build muscle, not falsely boost an ego. Let’s get it!!!🦈 #fullrom #consistency #WeightTrainingTips #fitnessjourney #gymtraining #trainingtips #weightlosstips #musclebuildingtips #Fitness

Time Under Tension (TUT) isn’t what you think… People confused the terms “mechanical tension” and “time under tension” all the time. The former is the stimulus for muscle growth. The latter is the stimulus for my migraines. Because saying your sets need to be “40-90 seconds long to maximise gains” is as useful as a knitted condom. The only TUT that means anything is toward the end of the set where your reps involuntarily slow down. Despite you pushing so hard you shit a kidney. Now don’t get it twisted, I think tempo is important. It teaches you how to actually use your muscles rather than bouncing the weight up and down like Nikki Minaj’s butt in a music video. That’s why I get all my clients to run through an execution phase with me first. But once you learn how to control the weight, don’t let it take away from what *actually* builds muscle which is to train close to failure and progressively lift more over time… Snuggles, Rusty Nuts ✌🏻 #tempo #gymtips #musclebuildingtips #musclebuilding #fitnessmotivation #Fitness #fitnessjourney #fatlosscoach #fyp #foryoupage #onlinepersonaltrainer #onlinecoach #explorepage
