You need mental momentum to keep you working towards your goals and workouts. But using actual physical momentum in your lifts is what’s killing your gains! Swinging weights and bouncing bars to get to your next rep isn’t doing what you think it is. Yes, you technically did the curl, but when did you gain from it? If you’re letting gravity do the work, then gravity gets the gains, not you.
Slow down your lifts with slight pauses and you’ll really begin to see and feel the difference with each rep. Yes, it’s slower. Yes, it’s tougher, but you’re guaranteed to gain from it, more so than just flinging the weight and knocking out the rep. No one goes to the gym solely to knock out reps, EVERYONE is there to either get stronger or lose weight.
So what are you doing? Don’t cheat yourself.
