[QUOTE="Mountain Man, post: 64608, member: 14411"] This is one of the major reasons I work out with bands exclusively. Granted, since I am older I have orthopedic problems and weights exacerbate them quite a bit. I can safely increase time under tension, a major promoter of muscle growth, but not necessarily strength. Allows me to do isometric holds and rest-pause type exercises, as well as control the eccentric portions of movements. Great info and, for a lot of guys, the missing piece in training, Too many guys heave and throw weights when working out, risking injuries and missing the benefits all chasing numbers. [/QUOTE]
