TUT 1:
If you tried the workout you now have definitely changed experienced a change in training stimulus and the effects will keep coming over the few days.
As we discussed the other day theres three main methods of ensuring overload.
However, theres even more ways to manipulate within those methods.
TUT(Time Under Tension) and rest periods been my favourite.
So to explain TUT in full.
Your goal determines just how long you are working for each on each set along with what strength quality to select. Each quality has its own time parameter.
(And heres u thinking we just made stuff up when we gave sessions out!!)
RS – 1 – 5 reps – working time per set 0-20 seconds
FH – 6 – 8 reps – working time per set 20 – 40 seconds
H – 9 – 12 reps – working time per set 40 – 70 seconds
SE – 13 – 20 reps – working time per set 50 – 120 seconds
These qualities will be explained more in future posts
The qualities that a lot of us (general population – yeah apparently thats how we are labelled 😂) are the FH/H quality because the most common goal is fat loss these days.
Now that you know this consider some of the workouts you have done recently and consider how many of your sets were within these parameters?
Tomorrows post is going to be TUT 2 and explain tempos and how they should be read.
