How to Improve Your Mind-to-Muscle Connection 101 š§ šŖ
The ability to feel the target muscle working isn't bro science.
It's one of the biggest differences between an intermediate lifter and an advanced lifterāespecially if your goal is maximizing muscle growth rather than simply moving the most weight possible.
In this video, I break down how to improve your mind-to-muscle connection so every rep becomes more productive.
This is just the beginning.
I already have nearly 300 free training tutorials on YouTube and my Bodybuilding Anatomy & Meathead Biomechanics 101 course teaches the "why" behind proper training.
Eventually, this topic will become its own standalone course, so stay tuned.
š Save this post, apply the concepts during your next workout, and send it to someone who needs to stop letting momentum do the work.
Remember, I consider EVERYONE an athlete in the sport of life and EVERYONE has an āeventā that matters just as much as the Super Bowl, so letās get you to improve at that āeventā!
