Tempo controls the amount of time that the muscle is active or producing tension – concentrically, isometrically, and/or eccentrically.

NASM writes tempos this way: “a/b/c”And tempo is always written in this way:

a = eccentric b = isometric

c = concentric

A purposeful system or plan put together to help an individual achieve a specific goal

List the acute variables for the adaptation for muscular endurance / stabilization.

Adaption - muscular endurance / stabilizationReps - 12- 20Sets - 1-3Intensity - 50-70% of RMTempo - Slow (4/2/1)Rest Periods - 0-90 seconds
