League of Wildness,
Today we're talking about Tempo Training and why I've been psyched on including it in my own training of recent.
What is Tempo Training?
>>Reps performed @ a prescribed cadence.
Tempo Training is always written as a four-number prescription.
For example: 3111
First number (3): This is the eccentric lowering portion of the exercise.
Second number (1): This is how long to pause at the bottom of the exercise.
Third Number (1): This is the length of the concentric (muscle shortening) portion of the exercise.
Fourth number: (1) How long to pause at the top of the exercise.
Why include Tempo Training?
Example workout:
2-3 sets
Pushups @ Tempo 3111 8-12 reps.
Rest 60-90 seconds.
Should we include Tempo Training in future programs?
Thanks for listening!
