Use a
- 10 second isometric contraction (60-70% max effort) at the beginning of the movement (long muscle chain) to recruit the muscle fibers, like the first 9 reps of a weight lifting movement,
- then use variable resistance to maintain the (60-70%) muscle contraction intensity level through the range of motion for another 12 seconds (up to the position in which the muscle is most contracted )
