For optimal muscle growth... - Control the eccentric - Explode on the concentric (under control) Very important to get these right -- do NOT mix these up.

PSA on the eccentric (the lowering portion of the lift): - 95% of growth comes from the concentric - The eccentric exists so you don't drop the weight on your face - The eccentric exists so you don't get injured - The eccentric does not exist to "maximise time under tension" - The eccentric does not need to be slowed for "extra stimulus" Lower the weight under control. Push hard on the way up. That's the whole protocol. Anything else is theatre.

TEMPO WORK 🔥 I like to train movements with a slow eccentric (lengthening/stretch) and explode up to: — work time under tension for muscle growth — control load (weight) to build strength — train both slow and fast twitch muscle fibers for functionality

The way Bryson DeChambeau can control his spin so well on these short wedges is an underrated skill. Very impressive.

The left’s protests around the country yesterday were massive. These are not AI generated. These are not “paid protestors.” If the right does not start hinging into reality, things will get very bad.

This is the spine doing exactly what it has been prepared to do. Athletes like wrestlers spend years developing the control, timing, and confidence to access these shapes under speed and pressure.

In terms of eccentric speed, THIS is what your Bicep curls should look like “Gotta milk the eccentric for greater gains, bro!” Tell me you don’t know how muscle growth works without telling me you don’t know how muscle growth works

In Michigan, our governor has a habit of deflecting blame to the national level whenever we have a state issue. But the fact is: Despite raising our taxes to record-high levels, these dams still decayed on her watch. Right now, I wish she would focus on damage control for these facilities — not her reputation.

Time under tension does not build muscle. You can move as slowly as you like. Control every millimetre. Turn a six-rep set into a 60-second ceremony. The muscle does not respond to the clock. It responds to mechanical tension applied close to failure by a load that is actually threatening it. No proximity to failure: no stimulus, regardless of how slowly you moved. And if you do push close to failure with a slow concentric, you have spent the whole set recruiting slow-twitch fibres, the ones built for endurance, while the fast-twitch fibres, the ones with genuine hypertrophic potential, wait at the side with nothing to do. They want heavy weight moved with maximum intent. They want the bar to slow because it is beating you, not because you chose to lose to it. Slow eccentrics compound this by generating damage without a proportional growth signal, because the muscle is at its strongest during the eccentric and nowhere near its limit. Feel free to move slowly. The fast-twitch fibres will remain exactly where they are.
