Exercise Tip: Emphasize Mind-Muscle Connection

"I can take a 20lb dumbbell and turn it into a 60lb dumbbell."
-Doug McKinney

Exercise Tip


EMPHASIZE MIND-MUSCLE CONNECTION FOR TONING AND GROWTH

Results come from HOW you lift the weight, not the AMOUNT of weight you lift. Emphasize the stimulus of the muscle when performing an exercise, don't just move the weight.
