Advanced Weight Training Techniques - Made Fit TV - Ep 86

February 23rd, 2010 | | Email This Post Email This Post |

Lifting weights is important for everyone, no matter what the goal is. Whether is be for weight-loss, strength, “tone” (I hate that word because it’s actually the product of dense muscle through weight training and lowered body fat, but, I digress…), performance, posture, the list goes on.  Whatever the goal, I guarantee weight-training is part of the equation.

When weight-lifting and resistance training, it can be easy for one to focus on how much they are lifting as opposed to the more important factor of how they are lifting.  When I say “how,” I’m talking about tempo.  Over time, training at the same tempo - or at an incorrect tempo - could lead to injury, plateau, or just boredom of your weight training program.

In this week’s Made Fit TV episode, I show you the basic tempo you should practice when lifting weights. This goes for beginners all the way up to seasoned lifters.  And to mix up your program, I show you a challenging tempo technique that can increase your muscle endurance, performance, and even size for you guys out there!

  • Hi Dani! Sorry to hear that our time zones are COMPLETELY opposite!! : ( Actually, we will be streaming later in the day on March 27, the day of my figure competition. We will be live pretty much all day on and off from noon until probably about 8pm, so that should work much better for you!
