Setting up Smart Training - Learning about working different muscle lengths & optimizing hypertrophy

Today's episode I break down what it means when people talk about exercises working a lengthened, mid, or short/contracted position of the muscle. Why should you care?! Because research shows that working muscle at certain lengths can provide more muscle growth. THATS AWESOME!

The second half of the episode I give you advice on how to utilize this information when writing your own programming.

I breakdown programming into...

• Primary exercises
• Supportive exercises
• Accessory exercises (only really needed for specialized training programming)

This simple breakdown allows us to choose smart movements and not fill our programming with a bunch of junk volume.
