Slow Twitch Muscle Fibers
low & slow
Each Lagree rep takes 8 or more seconds and uses no momentum. And just when you think you’re going slow enough, we’ll recommend you try to go even slower.
When you slow it down and eliminate momentum, putting ALL the work and effort into your muscles, you will be incorporating more muscle fibers and in a much safer way than explosive movement. When you perform the exercises slower, you activate your Slow-Twitch Muscle Fibers.
Slow-Twitch Muscle Fibers are your endurance, fat-burning, toning, sculpting fiber. If you want to create a well-defined physique, you need to stimulate your ST muscle fiber. When you work very slow and with control, the result is to really tighten the muscle fibers instead of force them to just get larger.
