Eccentric training

Try it! Studies are showing great results with eccentric weight training so work the opposite way you may be accustomed to by making a 1 sec. contraction and 3-5 sec eccentric movement-bringing the weight back to the starting position. Try 8 reps but do a regular concentric set to warm up (you may need to lower your weight). Its now showing better muscle recovery and repair factors to name a few.
