Lifting lighter means your muscles do all the work, which is after all why you’re in the gym. Using poundage beyond what your body can lift, means you are relying on momentum, not exclusively your muscles, to get the bar up. How many times do we see guys curling heavy dumbbells while they wildly swing their limbs back and forth, just to lift the weight? Unless they’re into velocity training, their arms will never grow that way.

So time to say goodbye to the old adage “lift big to get big,” and say hello to the new buzz phrase of bodybuilding, “lift low and grow!”
