[Pectorial]

for example...

dumbell curls...

down in 3 seconds...

hold for 3 seconds

pump up in 1!!

whats your thoughts on this technique?

i always enjoy doing 5seconds up and down holding at the top and bottom for like 3 seconds

If we are talking about dumbell curls only, up 3, down 1, very little pause at bottom. It really varies from exercise to exercise for me.

I have done some super slow reps before, talking in the down in 8 range. Can only do it on certain exercises. It's a nice way of mixing things up and shocking the muscles but not something I would want to do all the time. Certain exercises I like to get into a rythm with.

you see some people in the gym full of gear all puffy nd tha dont ever do cardio nd they don have any technique at all they just bang out as many reps as they can

its crazy
