Neural Priming Before Heavy Lifts

Before heavier lifts, use supra-isometric maximal holds such as an active hang with 80–100 kg for about 3 seconds, then reduce to working weight and wait about 2 minutes before the set. The goal is to switch on the central nervous system without fatiguing yourself.
