5 Random Tips for Faster Strength Gains

5 Random Tips for Faster Strength Gains

Here we go…

1. On chin-ups, think of driving your elbows down and back to properly engage the lats instead of just pulling with the arms.

2. Wave volume and intensity over time for best gains in strength, size and work capacity.

This goes out to all y’all bangin’ out 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps or 5×5 for six months in a row.

3. On single-leg movements like split squats or reverse lunges, think of pushing the heel of the working leg through the ground.

This helps with maintaining stability and allows you to lift more weight.

4. Add slow eccentrics into your workouts.

But be sure to limit them to the off-season. Guys hate how the subsequent muscle soreness makes their legs feel heavy on the ice during hockey season.

5. Do push-ups, dips, rows and chins on rings to maximize upper body development.

One look at a male gymnast’s upper body tells us everything you need to know about how effective the rings are for that.
