Explosive Strength Training: Timing is Key
Focusing on explosive movements enhances strength training effectiveness. By prioritizing speed and form over the number of repetitions, individuals can achieve more impactful workouts. When performing exercises like a high pull, one should aim for explosive power in the first few reps, noticing an increase in speed before fatigue sets in. Typically, the optimal range for maintaining this explosive quality is around three to six repetitions; pushing beyond this limit may diminish performance. Recognizing when to stop is crucial to maintaining the intent of each set.
