Ep.38 Are Faster or Slower Reps Better For Muscle Growth? Discussing Optimal Lifting Tempo.

from Build & Keep Fitness: The Fitness Journey of a College Student · host Timothy Averill

Welcome back fellow hardgainers!  Today, in the third episode of rep week, we discuss the lifting tempos. Is a faster or a slower tempo better or necessary for muscle growth? How fast or slow do you need to perform your reps? Or does tempo not even matter? I will answer all of those questions and more in today's episode so you can find out once and for all, if you should be using faster or slower tempos. Be sure to tune in for the last episode of rep week, coming this Monday, which will cover the highly disputed topic of rep weight/load - is lifting heavy necessary for growth, and is lifting light useless? Thank you for tuning in! If you enjoyed and found this helpful or informative, please leave a like, and subscribe or follow for more content.
