Pre Exhaustion
*Using an Isolation or “single joint” movement preceding a compound or “multi Joint” movement for a muscle group. Example: Leg Extension then Squats or Leg press. Or Side Lateral raise then Standing or Seated Press. You are “Pre Exhausting” the target muscle group then finishing off that group with a compound movement.
One needs to move very quickly between the exercise to be successful as muscle recovers very quickly
why would i want to pre exhaust?
Check your shorts when your done!
Breakdowns
Immediately after reaching failure remove some of the weight and continue for a few more reps.
Don’t overdo this one.
One or two Breakdowns for an exercise are good.
Andy,
Have you read any of the Colorado Experiment stuff?
That is intensity in its purest form!
63lb of muscle in 28 days..
for maximum hypertrophy, should i be focusing on slow negatives (5-7 seconds) every workout on most/all exercises?
