Focusing on getting the weight moving explosively definitely has its benefits. I'm pulling 230 kilos quicker and easier than I pulled 170 kilos one year ago. Momentum ftw
Good Acceleration and velocity with sub maximal weights is probably the best way to train for "power". The problem is those ballistic types of movements can destroy joints and connective tissue even faster than the boofheads who grind everything to failure at a snail's pace.
Most weight lifters will say that speed is essential but that you can never be a really top weightlifter without also being insanely strong (as in grinding limit-strength work with back squats). The dreadful, short carreer of weight lifters!
i think the key to longevity is to learn how to do the compound exercises with good acceleration but control the movement enough so that you aren't hyperextending or locking out too forcefully.
If you become stuck on a rep for a period of time, cheating *can* be one of the tools (tricks) used to stimulate growth to get past that point, most make the mistake of adding sets.
For example the barbell curl; swinging the weight up using momentum, then very slowly lowering (6sec) continue until you are unable to control the lowering.
What is applying more force to a 200kg barbell
The one that is accelerating the weight
The one that is not accelerating the weight
There is no way to refute this logic
Such a fucking retarded debate fuck
What is the issue you have with adding sets? If you perform the exercises with the cadences and controlled eccentrics as you prescribed, an extra set = extra volume which can be a good thing right? It follows the time under tension concept.
On the same token one could use the pause-rest principle instead if they want to keep it all within the same set. Or pyramid down the weights with minimal rest. All these techniques require 'extra sets', so taking that out of the equation completely is missing out on a fair bit of gainz, dontcha reckon?
The issue is that force does not equal gains lol
Putting the most force on the bar doesn't make you stronger
TUT is what drives progress lol
Such a fucking retarded debate fuck
Perhaps, perhaps not. It depends on where you want that progress to occur, i.e. muscular endurance, muscular strength, muscular size, neuromuscular efficient...what? To isolate one method and try applying it haphazardly to all goals would do you little, if not produce a type of regress instead of progress.TUT is what drives progress
Precisely that, thank you brother. It's a different ball game here, where the emphasis on muscular exhaustion takes a back seat to neuromuscular efficiency, where the name of the game here is muscular recruitment rather than muscular exhaustion.tut tutt..
Can't say the same for OLY movements though, you don't want to tut tutt that shit when it's flying into your face.

Ok so the benefit from 1 big ass continuous 30 minutes TUT (hypothetically) does NOT = segments of TUT, sum of which is also 30 minutes?
Sorry that is new to me, I haven't done a whole lot of soul searching on this idea.
