Mechanical tension is a key component to growth - You can't let inertia take over and expect the muscle to grow.
With Jet Reps, we perform an exercise with a faster pace, without taking the tension off of the muscle.
The hammer curls are PERFECT for this technique, as there is no change in wrist rotation and we can do it QUICK!
