GET SWOLE SATURDAY QUICK TIP OF THE WEEK: Tempo Training — The Secret Weapon for Growth

Yo Meatheads — if your gains are stuck and your sets are flying up and down like a damn pogo stick, it’s time to learn some discipline:

 

👉 CONTROL THE TEMPO.

Why?

Muscle growth happens when you maximize time under tension — not just moving weight, but making the muscle work the entire rep.

How?

Next chest day, try this on your bench or dumbbell press:

  • 4 seconds lowering the weight (eccentric)

  • 1 second pause at the bottom

  • Explode up in 1 second (concentric)

  • Pause 1 second at the top

 

That’s one rep. Now do 8-10 of those.
Feel the burn. Feel the pump. Feel the growth.

The Result?

More tension → more damage → more growth → more swole → more reasons to cut off your sleeves.


 

REMEMBER: Tempo is a tool. Use it. Abuse it. Get bigger. Get harder. Stay a Meathead.
Now go lift.
