Contracting the muscle

Aanthony

when you are working out is it necessary to always contract the muscle at the peak. Meaning do I have to squeeze really really hard and then slowly release back down when I am resistance training
can you explain to me the science of why you believe or not believe this
 
the idea behind weight training is to break up those muscle fibers and also condition the muscles

but you also have to factor in proper form to prevent injuries and to lift with your muscles, not with your joints if that makes sense.

so yes drop sets and contracting the muscle is a good idea

you should always squeeze hard and really pump up the arms hard
