Time Under Tension Training
Include some proportion of weekly resistance training focused on slow controlled contractions and lowering phases to emphasize nerve-to-muscle pathways and muscle-derived signals that benefit the brain. In one example, move the weight as quickly as possible on the concentric phase, lower it at least twice as slowly, pause while keeping the muscles under tension, engage the target muscles before the rep, and avoid setting the weight down until the end of the set.
“Some proportion of the exercises that you do during your resistance training during the week should include time under tension training, where you're really emphasizing the contraction of the muscles, the slow lowering of the weight, as well as the lifting of the weight, contracting the muscles as hard as you can.”
