How many times have you heard these words or phrases from top level bodybuilders... peak contraction, extension, feel the muscle you are working, tremendous pump, mind to muscle connection.
Now lets throw all that out the window and do bent over rows and deadlifts at 75 to 80% on our 1RM. And the rest of the compound movements for which there is no peak contraction, no mind to muscle connection. Only straining, shaking, and wrecking havoc on your central nervous system and joints as much as you can to increase your poundage's month by month.
Judging by these highly touted mass "routines" on here, we all just need to be power lifters and throw in a few extra reps and sets plus some bb curls and chins. Throw out all the phrases about contraction and extension. Just worry about weight? Yet isn't that what you hear all the time? Not to be concerned with the weight?
Can someone please explain.
