JOINT HEALTH

Friends, Joint health is very crucial for weight training and bodybuilding longevity. We all know of someone who has busted his shoulder, elbow or knee joint through lifting weights. Indeed, our joints take a beating from years of heavy training (and training inappropriately) and injuries will hold you back and reduce your ability to perform certain key exercises 

At times the injury can be so severe that you may say good bye to your competitive plans. We will post some tips based on our own experience and what we have learned from others. You are very welcome to add your own experiences regarding joints and your personal comments.

Happy and safe lifting to everyone.

JOINT TIP: TO LOCK OUT OR NOT TO LOCK OUT?

Read the attached article carefully. Whether locking out is detrimental to joints or not has been subject to debate.

We have seen many people pause between reps or in the middle of a set in and let the joints bear the load. It can be seen especially on bench presses and leg presses whereby trainees allow the joint to “hyperextend”. This is not a wise practice. It can take a toll on the joints. We advise to proceed with caution when locking out. Advanced lifters know how to “lock”out to achieve peak contraction without straining the joints.
