Controlling your movements is 🔑
Here’s 3 reasons why slower movements are more beneficial ⬇️
1. Less reliance on momentum.
- When you move quickly through a movement, momentum can take over. Rather than your muscles doing most of the work, physics takes all the credit. By moving slowly and staying in control, you force yourself to apply your own strength.
2. Use of your full range of motion.
- Another side effect of rapid movement is a shortened range of motion. When you perform an exercise too quickly, you end up shortchanging yourself. But by slowing down, you’re more likely to use your joint’s full range of motion, leading to greater mobility and strength.
3. Improvements in technique.
- Not only does moving slowly allow you to use a full range of motion, but it also helps you develop the proper technique. Slower movements can shine a spotlight on improper form while giving you a chance to address your weaknesses.
