They told us lifting heavy was risky.
Too masculine. Too dangerous. Too much.
But here’s what they didn’t tell us—
That strength doesn’t just build muscle. It rebuilds you.
I’ve been injured. I’ve been scared to lift again.
But every time I pick up that bar, I prove to myself that fear doesn’t get the final word.
Recovering isn’t just about your body—it’s about reclaiming your belief in what you can do.
We lift because we’re strong.
We lift because we are still healing—and still showing up.
Heavy isn’t something to fear.
It’s something to conquer.

💥 Eccentric vs. Concentric Pauses — Why Elite Athletes Use Both 💥
Charles Poliquin believed tempo is king when it comes to strength and hypertrophy. ⏱️ Today, we’re diving into the power of eccentric and concentric pauses and why smart athletes use them. 🧠💪
🔹 Eccentric Pauses (lowering phase):
– Build max strength and size
– Recruit more motor units
– Strengthen connective tissue
– Boost control & injury resilience
🔹 Concentric Pauses (lifting phase):
– Eliminate momentum (no cheating!)
– Improve starting strength
– Train explosive power
– Sharpen technique under tension
– Increased neural drive
Why do top athletes use them?
Because strength lives in the details. These pauses expose weaknesses, improve time under tension, and take your performance to the next level. 🧬🔥
Want to break plateaus? Master your tempo. 💯
