How To Lift Correctly

     Whenever you are training, slow and controlled movements are more effective than fast movements. For example; when you are performing a bicep curl, by slowly lifting the weight your muscles are exerting it's maximum force for an extended amount of time, thereby increasing the strain on the muscle and affecting every part of that muscle. 

   When you lift quickly, you might be able to lift more weight, but you are not giving the muscle adequate time to strain. By lifting faster, you are increasing the time it takes for your muscles to grow and that might exasperate your motivation to keep working out. Work out SMARTER not HARDER.
