The Problem With Your Form!

Visually, your form can be perfect, the tempo can be textbook BUT it still might not be right.

Like I said, "visually" speaking it might look perfect.

Here's where the problem might be though and the reason why I say it may still need improving.

You aren't tensing the muscle hard enough.

Visually, that's very hard to see (at least on some exercises, others it's easier to assess visually).

You have heard me bring this topic up before, but I want to really explain it so there's no misunderstanding.

Through the concentric, eccentric and isometric phases you need to be deliberately tensing the target muscle as you would with no weight.

Yes it makes it harder, but that's the point. You WILL engage more muscle fibers because you are creating an environment where more stimulation will occur due to the fact there's MORE stress on the muscle.

This is one of the fastest ways you can force a muscle to grow.

It takes concentration, it f***ing hurts and it will feel uncomfortable.
