FT Questions....

I've covered this one a a bit before, my man. (Here are the results of a search for "Lagging.")

I've to the No Show No Go Daily Trainer available, to show a full customization of FT (like I might do with a client) to bring things up (Chest calves and abs, in this case).

Basically, it would depend on your muscle group, but strategies already built into FT would be:

Loading sets:
-Isolation exercises first (e.g., flies before presses)

Muscle Rounds:
-Pick these wisely and use new exercises you've not before. Find new angles, stimulate at either end of the range of motion, and create resistance curves that are novel with different positions, and even bands and chains.

-If progression (progressive overload) works well for you, then pound away at the same exercises here.

-Order of operations here, too: Isolation before compound e.g., knee extensions before leg presses to bring up quad.

-Perform these exercises unilaterally if you've not before - this adds a whole dimension.

Pump Sets:
-As you said, make these brutal. 5's into the Hole is one I suggest folks try out, as these focus on occlusion d/t the partial reps perhaps moreso than you might if you just did a continuous rep style pump set.

-Be very creative here with exercises, too and feel free to "create the set" as you move through it. Doing a lat pulldown and not feeling it deep in the lower lat - simply start adding pulsing reps near the bottom of the range of motion when you've got a shortened muscle and can most easily activate and feel that part of the muscle.

And yes, you're right in that Turbo hits with even greater frequency, so that's an option, too.

Thanks for this Scott, I forgot what I searched, I believe it was "weak body part" so I didn't find the above. All that is very helpful!
