Yep, I found that out the hard way!  

😕makes sense why I had all the elbow tendon pain and had to stop using the barbell and back down the Intestity after the first 4 months of training  

Interesting..didn't know this!👍 

Lol needless to say I’m finding it out the hardest also but tud found out the hardest. Apparently you can bias tendon hypertrophy also, a more slow n controlled movement bias more if the muscles and a more dynamic movement bias more of the tendons! Something I’ll be adding to my routine for sure 😂 

Also vit c is essential for collagen synthesis 💡 

Yep I too found out the hard way. This go around I am taking a slower progression to adding weight and so far the tendons etc are happy. 

That’s some good question merms. Depends on your goal, if you’re looking to be as muscular as possible then slow n controlled for sure. But if you’re looking to be powerful then definitely dynamic movement to build to tendons up. Think of it like athletes where their movement require speed n power. So the movement has to be high velocity. In my case I’m looking to be medium size and would like to dip into the tendon hypertrophy thing. Powerful n muscular but not overly muscular is my new goal now. Also vit c start to degrade at 86f! Makes me wonder how many people are actually getting adequate amount of vit c 🤔  

Am I’m not saying to throw the weights all over the place lol a weight where you could move it fast and controlled 

DM yes it looks like monthly progressions if you want to play it safe 

I appreciate my blood, blood pressure, circulation system as well as a lymphatic system. It is a good post.  

Interesting about Vitamin C. I did not know. Thankfully I already take it. You are full of great information 👍 thank you. 💪 

If you’re getting the majority of your vitamin c from fruits and veggies, it’s probably fine. 

Yea I think you’re good Kat, with all the salads you eat lol.... I’ve been eating 3-4 apples a day which only give 9mcg of vit c! And all my veggies I cook them which destroys it. Daily recommended dose is 75mg a day for the average person, a little more if you’re active. I guess I have to each chilly peppers 🌶 till I could get some orange juice 🤣 

Interesting on the vitamin C! 

you could eat an orange or two. or a tomato. not sure why this is popping up a week later, but whatever.
