Mind-body connection in training the rear deltoids
Is it better to lift heavy or to lift to feel the muscles working?
Why can I lift almost double the weight with somewhat good form but not the best mind-muscle connection when training for muscle growth? Sometimes I don’t feel the muscle I'm trying to activate actually activate, and it feels like I’m just going through the motions. However, when I reduce the weight to about half, I get a better mind-muscle connection, can feel the stretch more, and it feels better overall. Am I getting the most out of my workouts if I lift heavier or if I focus on lighter weights, form, and mind-muscle connection, then progressively overload with more reps, sets, or weight based on the insights from the episode Light Weights vs. Heavy Weights for Muscle Growth: Everything You Need to Know | Mind Pump 1932 and the clip Strength Training Insights?
