Slow down for just a second

Mike helping out with some Hamstring mobility with his buddy Louis

As many of you are accustomed to working hard and fast during your workouts, sometimes we lose focus on what is truly important… doing things correctly.  It’s important to take stock in what you are doing andwhy you are doing each movement so you can maximize your true potential.  Slowing down just a second when performing a lift or movement to focus on your body position and proper muscle engagement will make a huge difference for you.  Slowing down for just a second will enable you to lift more weight without the worry of doing things incorrectly.  Slowing down for just a second puts the focus back to where it should be.  Yes, we want to beat the clock, but there won’t be any beating of the clock if you are unable to finish a workout or even participate in one.  As trainers, we are focused on quality versus quantity, as trainees, your focus should be on the same thing.
