Exercise Tip #2:
Going to...
Momentary Muscular Fatigue (MMF)
Notes/Take Aways:
-
Multiple sets per exercise isn't necessary when you implement momentary muscular fatigue (MMF)
-
If you take all the major muscles groups to MMF, your workouts should only take 15-20 minutes
-
MMF allows you to better track progress because you know, definitively, when you hit your max
-
MMF allows you to track your recovery progress
-
When you reach MMF your muscle fibers have reached a deeper level of exhaustion so doing multiple sets will only cause excessive damage or strain
-
By going to MMF, you are giving your muscle tissue the proper amount of stressor, without overtraining
-
This will allow for faster recovery and the ability to achieve your exercise goals faster!
-
-
Homework:
-
Try training to MMF
-
Here's how:
-
Pick a weight where you wouldn't be able to go any longer in around 8-10 reps
-
While moving slowly, (5/5 or 10/10 cadence), continue to move until you cannot complete another rep
-
When you reach this point, continue to try for at least 5-10 seconds - this is MMF
