TIME UNDER TENSION. experts explain.

[leancuisine]

on the last rep of any given set, i hold the weights in the maximum contraction position for about 10 seconds.

it burns like a bitch.

is the eccentric movement the same as time under tension?>???

 

[edgecrusher]

Time under tension just refers to the amount of time you spend perfroming each set. You should time the eccentric, concentric and isometric portion of each movement, to get your total TUT.

 

[collegiateLifter]

TUT is a vastly oversimplified theory, so don't stress too much about it.

 

[casualbb]

Agreed.
