I’ve always been pretty strict with my movements. I’m not one of those guys that rocks back & forth doing pull downs and rows or brings the bar up to eye level at the top of a curl. When I find myself wanting to do these things, I lighten the load a bit and keep it strict. Been doing it this way for years.
So I’ve recently been watching some of the pro’s workout videos. They seem like they turn a lot of exercises into compound movements.
I’ve given some thought to doing this since it seems to be working pretty good for them. But I’m 43 and been doing well the last several years not getting injured. I’ve been really consistent at going to the gym and don’t wanna chance getting hurt. Tendinitis is a bitch that I hope to never deal with again.
I can see an advantage in these type of movements since there’s more muscle recruitment. I’m kinda stuck in my ways though and not sure if I should even fuck with it.
Let’s have some opinions….
