#282: The Importance Of Mind Muscle Connection

15 May 2025

Description

Eric, Jeff, and Brian discuss the intersection between effort, mind muscle connection, and biomechanics to give you more flexibility in your technique, exercise selection, and programming. How important is having a good mind muscle connection when performing an exercise? Does rep speed matter as long as you’re hitting the appropriate proximity to failure? How much of a difference does training at longer muscle lengths really make? What are Eric’s current principles for exercise selection? Can you still make good progress (in regard to hypertrophy) if you vary your exercises frequently? How can you develop a better mind muscle connection? The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.
