Strength for MMA: Tempo Training
By William Wayland
Tempo training is the manipulation of time during an exercise. We can change the time time during 3 phases of each exercise: eccentric, isometric and concentric. Done correctly, we can greatly improve your ability to absorb and produce force. Most strength training programs focus on the concentric portion of each lift, but by focusing on the eccentric and isometric portion, we can quickly become stronger. In today's video, coach William Wayland breaks down this topic in more detail.
