MMX Stretch Pre-Ex Tuesday Summary
The high-rep stretch move first isolates the target muscle and is highly traumatic. Plus, the stretch against resistance triggers an emergency response (myotatic reflex) for extra fast-twitch activation on the big midrange move that follows. This is great change to gain–with impending soreness pain. Love it.
