Description

Today's episode I break down what it means when people talk about exercises working a lengthened, mid, or short/contracted position of the muscle. Why should you care?! Because research shows that working muscle at certain lengths can provide more muscle growth. THATS AWESOME! The second half of the episode I give you advice on how to utilize this information when writing your own programming.I breakdown programming into...
Primary exercises
Supportive exercises
Accessory exercises (only really needed for specialized training programming)
This simple breakdown allows us to choose smart movements and not fill our programming with a bunch of junk volume. For those of you who would rather have someone else do all the thinking for you, click HERE to sign up for my optimized training programs. Train Smart! :) Follow me at liftinglindsay on Instagram
