Slow Weight TrainingSLOW WEIGHT TRAININGSUPER SLOWSlow weight training is a form of weight training known as Super slow Slow eight training is a perfect way to avoid momentum and train if you have tendonitis. The main benefit of super slow training is that it eliminates momentum which tends to take stress away from a muscle and places it on the joints! Super slow weight training can only be performed with light weights so this tends to eliminate potential muscle stimulation and slows down your muscle mass gains. The maximum speed of a super slow repetition is 10 seconds up and 5 seconds down! this means you take 10 seconds to lift the weight and 5 to lower it in the eccentric portion of the rep For the best slow weight training results you want to vary the repetition speed, sometimes try 4 up 2 down other times try 12 up and 12 down... Also to improve a super slow weight training session , you might want to add more sets to make up for the lack of stress super slow reps deliver. I recommend this training for people who have sustained an injury! It is not the best way to build muscle mass! |
