i've been doing a new lifting technique that a friend showed me... but i was wondering what type of training it IS
i factored it into my "one day a week" weight training and have been making steady gains
on bench (for example) -
i do three slow reps then hold the bar at the half way point. i hold for about 15 seconds then have a spotter start pushing DOWN on the bar slowly until i cannot resist anymore and the bar almost touches my chest. ( at that point i need help getting it off me). i do this twice
i incorporated this technique into other excercises and have noticed that i am more sore than normal for several days. also have noticed more muscle twitching in between workouts - like while laying bed (which is cool). does anyone think this workout is good / bad / dangerous ???
