I see a lot of men raising and lowering the weight too fast, rather than creating tension by squeezing the muscle with each rep. It’s clear they just want to hit a rep count, with no regard for the tempo or the time under tension for the exercise. I often call these junk reps.
Research shows muscle growth is influenced by several factors, including time under tension, volume, intensity, and muscle damage. Lifting a weight with a slow tempo increases the muscle's time under tension, which can increase muscle damage, thus creating more muscle growth. I refer to this as quality reps.
By lifting a weight with a fast tempo, it may not allow for sufficient time under tension, thus not providing the same stimulus for muscle growth.
