Focusing on using good technique by lifting manageable weight with full range of motion and controlling the negative phase of the movement is crucial. To maximize muscular recruitment, slow down during the eccentric phase, pause at the stretch point, then explosively contract during the concentric phase. This approach helps to apply tension on the muscles and prevents gravity from causing excessive fatigue.
Building and maintaining muscle is one of the most important things that we can to protect or long term health. But, building muscle can be a challenge and it is a lot more difficult if you are not doing it effectively.
Today on the show, I have my friend Dr. Joey Munoz on to discuss the 3 muscle building mistakes that you want to avoid to ensure that you get the most out of your resistance training.
On this episode we discuss:
- The #1 mistake that keeps people from getting results from their efforts
- Why range of motion during training is extremely important
- How speed of exercise impacts results
- Nutrition mistakes that people make when losing fat AND building muscle
And more.
Tune into the episode to hear more.
