  • Preventing muscle and tendon tears during cycle?

    When you are on something like Fina, where ul have drastic strength increases, your muscles strengthen a lot faster than your tendons. Also, its a lot heavier weight than your muscles are used to. What precautions and strategies would you use during a cycle where ur most likley gonna increase strength a lot as far as sets reps and frequency of hittin that muscle? Any suppliments to help?

    All I do is stretch out before every workout for about ten to twenty minutes. When I first get on a cycle and stregth increases are drastic I tend to get more reps going to see what I'm capable of. Once I establish that, I lower the reps and raise the weight. What ever you do try to avoid getting injured. Probably not much help,but bump for more responses.

      I warm up on the treadmill for 10 minutes, then I stretch for another ten. Then when I'm completing a set I perform the movement in a slow deliberate fashion focusing on the form. In between sets I stretch some more. After the workout is finished I head home and ice the muscle and the areas surrounding it. Time consuming but it works for me. Except for an isolated case of back spasms I've been relatively injury free so far.
