Maximize Muscle Growth with Perfect Rep Tempo | 60-Second Sets for Hypertrophy

In this video, I break down how to optimize your workouts by using a scientifically-backed rep tempo designed to maximize time under tension and muscle growth. By controlling the concentric, isometric, and eccentric phases of each rep, you can ensure every second counts. I’ll show you how a 60-second set, with 10 controlled reps (2.5-second concentric, 1-second squeeze, 2.5-second eccentric), is a game-changer for hypertrophy and strength.

What do you think about Mike Mentzer training methods.?

[@haydensteele]

Great question! Mike Mentzer’s High-Intensity Training (HIT) definitely has its place, and it’s worked for a lot of people. His focus on short, intense workouts and training to failure is effective for some. However, my training philosophy leans more toward consistency and optimizing time under tension (TUT) for hypertrophy. I believe that progressively overloading muscles isn’t just about increasing intensity but also about mastering form, controlling tempo, and engaging the muscle fully. While HIT focuses on lower volume and high intensity, I prefer a more systematic approach that ensures each muscle is properly worked through multiple sets and varying angles to maximize growth. Both approaches can be valuable-it just depends on the individual’s goals and preferences!
