So I've got
a bunch of exercises here for you to check
out, using the "1 Rep Fitness" technique.
This technique
is from the book "1
Rep Fitness" by French bodybuilder
Fabrice Rinaldi.
As you'll see,
this technique looks a lot like a rest-pause
set. In fact, that's pretty much what it is!
You'll be doing an extended set of 8 to 10
reps doing just 1 rep at a time, resting 10
seconds between each rep.
This allows
you to perform at a higher level during the
set...you can lift more weight for more reps
because the brief rest period in between allows
for some recovery in the energy stores in
your muscles and a clearance of fatigue-causing
metabolic byproducts (like lactic acid, for
example).
Bottom
line, you can lift heavier weight for more
reps.
