WHY do I lift so slow?!?

[Bigsatan13]

You ever heard of westside training or louie simmons at westside barbell?They use unconvetional training methods such as dynamic-effort method,conjugate method etc...

Its the same thing Cornholi is talking about.You have a speed bench day first(dynamic-effort method) ,where you train 55-60% of your 1rm.Then you a heavy day where you train up to 90% of your 1rm.

On your heavy day you pick out a chest exercise,like incline, and train up 90% of your 1rm for three to four weeks.After that you pick another exercise,decline,floor press,board press etc...and do it for 3-4 weeks and so on.

These methods are not for everybody,but if you are concerned about getting bigger and stronger these are good methods.

What does your statement have to do with my quote?

The minis and the light flex bands.

I heard these bands will make you real sore.

Any advice on what or what not to do?

You can double up the mini's when you do flat bench...and use the lights on some squatting, pulling, and maybe...maybe benching. It would be good to have the medium and heavy bands for squatting. A friend of mine sent me some blue bands while I prep for my next contest...and they are some serious tension.

Just go slow...un racking even just the bar with the mini's is a new feeling..very strange.

TN huh? I'm in Nashville often...I have a few good friends there. I'm only 2 hours away from Nashville...maybe.
