One of the most significant elements for a woman's fitness program and one that has a big effect on your success or failure is tempo or lifting speed of the weights you are using.
Lifting tempo plays a key part in the prevention of injury as well as strength and muscle increase.
A fast lifting speed or tempo during your fitness program will produce momentum and doesn't encourage blood flow to the muscle you're using.
A slow lifting speed or tempo creates less momentum and will force your muscles to do the work. A slow tempo requires a concentration of muscle power throughout the entire range-of-motion.
When you lift weights (which is a critical part of a womans fitness program) and in every weight training exercise in your fitness program there are two different parts to each repetition of every set performed.
The first part, the concentric contraction, more normally referred to as the "positive" phase of the repetition is the part where the muscle is actually priming itself for the main resistance in the second part of the lift.
As an example the lifting motion of the bicep curl, from the beginning where your arms are hanging straight down to the point where the weight is lifted up is the concentric contraction or "positive" part of the lift.
The second part is the eccentric contraction, more normally referred to as the "negative" phase of the repetition.
This is the part with maximum resistance, because you are returning the weight from the end of the positive phase back to the beginning, which causes your muscles to work at their maximum capacity.
Thereby creating a situation for greater success.
Using the bicep curl as an example again, this is where you let the weight come back slowly and controlled to the beginning position, with your arms extended straight down again.
The eccentric contraction or "negative" phase of the lift is more important to the success of your specific womens fitness program than the "positive" phase.
The eccentric contraction or "negative" phase, lowering the weight to the starting position with resistance on every exercise, is very important because this is when the micro trauma is caused to your muscles, which causes your muscles to build even stronger while resting.
Whatever the actual lifting speed or tempo you're using always remember to return to the starting position slower for each and every weightlifting exercise.
