Lifting weights rapidly may make you feel like you’re making good progress. However, in reality you’re setting yourself up for injury and making false progress because you’re using speed and momentum rather than strength and power to complete the lift. By slowing down, keeping full control of the weight and using strength instead of momentum, you’ll get the maximum benefit from your strength training, even if you have to drop the amount of weight you’re lifting. You’ll also significantly slash your injury risk.
The articles below provide you with lots of weightlifting exercises you can use to perfect the slow lifting technique described above. So have a read, start practising and get the maximum benefit out of your strength training today.
