Flex between sets to improve Definition
on 3/4/2008 by ryan | filed in: Strength Training
Flex between sets to improve Definition Many people do mini stretches in between sets, but many lifters aren't aware of how flexing in between sets can help as well. Flexing your muscles (flex them hard) can actually help you create more muscle definition. This helps keep the pump and helps flush out the muscles from build up such as lactic acid. Isotension also helps to add definition to your muscles.

I'm not saying to stand there in front of the mirror posing in flex mode, but give an un-noticeable flex in between sets and it will give you a small edge.

I'm going to try to make this part of my routine, starting yesterday. Does it have an adverse effect on muscular endurance during your workout? I'm just wondering because your muscles are resting between sets otherwise.

Yes that is a great tip- I just learned of it a couple years back. we always can learn more regardless how big or cut up we are.
