FULL STRETCHING BENEFITS NOT FOR EVERY EXERCISE! THIS IS WHY

FULL STRETCHING BENEFITS NOT FOR EVERY EXERCISE! HERE’S WHY 💪🚀

#MuscleGrowth #StrengthTraining #FitnessScience

Is full stretching really necessary in every exercise? 🤔 While starting in a fully stretched position is crucial for muscle activation in compound movements like pull-ups, lat pulldowns, bent-over rows, bench press, and shoulder press, it does not offer the same benefits in isolation exercises like biceps curls, lateral raises, or triceps extensions. ✅ Full Stretch Benefits in Compound Movements For big lifts, starting in a stretched position increases muscle fiber recruitment and range of motion, leading to better hypertrophy and strength gains. For example: ✔️ Pull-Ups & Lat Pulldown – Fully stretching the lats improves contraction power. ✔️ Bent-Over Row – A full stretch at the bottom engages more muscle fibers. ✔️ Bench Press & Shoulder Press – A deep stretch activates chest and shoulders more effectively. ❌ When Full Stretching is Unnecessary On biceps curls, lateral raises, and similar isolation exercises, overstretching reduces tension on the target muscle, making the movement less effective. Instead, keeping constant tension throughout the movement delivers better growth. 🚨 Know when to stretch and when to maintain tension for optimal gains! 💪
